Reduced leaf stomatal density, enlarged stomatal size and increased water use efficiency in the transgenic Chinese kale. (A,B) Comparisons of cells and stomatal density. Three leaves were sampled for each plant, and five plants were sampled for both the control and the transgenic lines. Values are mean ± SD (^∗∗p < 0.01). (C) Comparisons of stomatal dimension in transgenic and wild-type plants. Values are mean ± SD (n = 50, ^∗∗p < 0.01). (D–F) Comparisons of photosynthesis rate (D), transpiration rate (E), and WUE (F) in wild-type and transgenic Chinese kale plants. Values are mean ± SD (^∗P < 0.05, ^∗∗P < 0.01). Asterisks indicate Student’s t-test significant differences.
