How Plants Count to Six: Decoding Stomatal Responses Through Calcium Signaling

Plants manage water consumption by controlling the opening and closing of stomata, which is regulated by guard cells using calcium signaling. Recent research reveals that guard cells can "count" up to six calcium transients to trigger stomatal closure, with findings shedding light on the complex processes behind plant water management. The study paves the way for future research into improving crop resilience.
