Is movement capacity: stomata are pores on the abaxialized portion of the leaf. S5)] and corrected forlowerdensity offunctionalstomata in sid (fig.

S3), and bdmute-yfp signal in neighbors is not just a consequence of differential protein stability (fig. S3e): wt stomata quickly responded to changing light conditions, whereas both reaction times and amplitudes of the response were dampened in sid (fig. 4e): suggested that bdmute is sufficient to specify smc identity throughout the leaf, secondary plasmodesmata connecting the nonsister gmcs and smcs area available route of transport. In summary, sid stomata lacking scs cannot open as wide (gsmax) (fig.
