Use of potassium and sucrose by onion guard cells during a daily cycle of osmoregulation
Solute content of stomata from intact onion cotyledons grown under either greenhouse or growth chamber conditions was followed over the course of a daily light cycle to determine patterns of osmoregulation. Initial opening of stomata was well correlated with guard cell potassium accumulation under b...

Allium cepa Osmoregulation Potassium Stomata Sucrose Solute content of stomata from intact onion cotyledons grown under either greenhouse or growth chamber conditions was followed over the course of a daily light cycle to determine patterns of osmoregulation. Initial opening of stomata was well correlated with guard cell potassium accumulation under both growth conditions. Subsequently, however, there was a consistent decrease in guard cell potassium content despite constant or increasing aperture.
