Current/voltage relations of whole-cell inward
K+ currents with adaxial (Ad) and abaxial (Ab) guard cell
protoplasts with or without 1.5 μm Ca2+ (the
calculated free Ca2+ concentration) in the pipette
solutions. K+ current amplitudes are expressed as the
current per unit cell capacitance to correct for variations resulting
from different cell sizes. The number of replicates for each treatment
were 9 (Ad, Control), 11 (Ad, Ca2+), and 6 (Ab, Control and
Ab, Ca2+). Each data point is the mean ±
se.
