An Optimal Frequency in Ca2+ Oscillations for Stomatal Closure Is an Emergent Property of Ion Transport in Guard Cells
Carla Minguet-Parramona,Yizhou Wang,Adrian Hills,Silvere Vialet-Chabrand,Howard Griffiths,Simon Rogers,Tracy Lawson,Virgilio L. Lew,Michael R. Blatt +8 more
TL;DR: Investigating oscillations in cytosolic-free Ca2+ concentration and analyzing their origins in guard cell homeostasis and membrane transport found that the frequency optima arise from emergent interactions of transport across the membrane system of the guard cell.

From green to gold: agricultural revolution for food security.
John R. Evans,Tracy Lawson +1 more
TL;DR: A Golden Revolution in agriculture is needed to sustainably feed the future population and meet their rising expectations.
Effects of elevated carbon dioxide and ozone on the growth and yield of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) grown in open-top chambers.
TL;DR: The results show that the O3 treatment imposed was insufficient to reduce tuber yields and that, although elevated CO2 enhanced crop growth during the early stages of the season, this beneficial effect was not sustained to maturity.

Stomata on the abaxial and adaxial leaf surfaces contribute differently to leaf gas exchange and photosynthesis in wheat
Shellie Wall,Silvere Vialet-Chabrand,Phillip A. Davey,J. Van Rie,Alexander Gallé,James Cockram,Tracy Lawson +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper , a combination of differential illuminations and CO2 concentrations at each leaf surface was used to determine the impact of less common stomatal patterning on gaseous fluxes using a novel chamber that simultaneously measured both leaf surfaces.
Impact of a simulated oil spill on benthic phototrophs and nitrogen-fixing bacteria in mudflat mesocosms.
