H2O2 and NO productions occur before stomatal closure induced by Ca2+o in Arabidopsis. (A, B) Kinetics of the increase in H2DCF (A) and DAF-FM (B) fluorescence intensities in guard cells of both wild type and CASas in response to 2 mM Ca2+o (n=50, ±SE). The relative changes in H2O2 and NO production were expressed using the fluorescence at time zero as the standard (100%). (D, E) Examples of H2DCF (D) and DAF-FM (E) fluorescence images of guard cells from A and B, respectively. Bar=50 μm. (C) Kinetics of 2 mM Ca2+o-, 10 μM H2O2-, and 60 μM SNP-induced stomatal closure of both the wild type and CASas (n=100, ±SE). Stomatal apertures (width to length) were measured as the percentage using zero time as the standard (100%). (This figure is available in colour at JXB online.)
