Trees begin their day by opening tiny pores under their leaves called stomata. These pores allow them to absorb carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the air – a key ingredient for photosynthesis. But there’s a ...

Plants have small pores on the underside of their leaves, known as stomata. When the sun rises, these pores open and the plants absorb carbon dioxide (CO 2) from the atmosphere, which they need, in ...

A lot of genes that are missing are responsible for features of the plant—open stomata or the lack of roots. We could identify genes that were responsible for each trait.” Stomata are pores on ...

Leaves have tiny holes in their surfaces—called stomata, or “little mouths”—that open and close to let tree leaves draw in carbon dioxide and release oxygen for photosynthesis.
