My first post in BSky, let's do it about our last paper (doi.org/10.1073/pnas...). We show how vital nonstomatal control of transpiration is for maintaining high assimilation rates in plants such as maize and sorghum under increased VPD. This mechanism boosts C4 plants' water-use efficiency.
If you’re interested in gaining practical experience with the use of stable isotopes and related equipment in plant and environmental science, I can recommend the SIBS workshop (30 Jan – 6 Feb 2026, Uni of Sydney, Australia).

We show that mesophyll cell water status is the key signal regulating non-stomatal control of transpiration. We introduce a mechanistic model linking plant hydraulics and gas exchange.

Definitely a recommended read for any exchanger of gases working with stressed and low-flux material. This summarizes many important considerations and measurement assumptions underlying the models of stomatal conductance and other derived parameters which are implemented in gas exchange systems.
Excited to share our paper with Anna Gardner and @florianabusch.bsky.social in Plant Ecophysiology!🌿
We review challenges in interpreting plant stress responses using gas exchange data, offer solutions to improve accuracy and discuss gaps in our current knowledge.
