TopGuard cell biology March 2009
Edited by Keith Mott
Guard cells are key regulatory elements in the control of photosynthesis and transpiration, and they have become a premier model system for the elucidation of intracellular and intercellular signaling networks. This collection of papers includes all aspects of guard cell biology, from cellular signaling to whole plant physiology.

TopThe role of xylem water transport in plant water balance January 2007
Edited by Keith Mott
Water loss through stomata must be replaced by water transport through the xylem of roots and stems. The articles in this Virtual Special Issue address the coordination between xylem water transport properties and stomatal control of transpiration.

TopFundamentals of water transport through xylem January 2007
Edited by N. Michele Holbrook
Although the basic mechanisms for water transport through the xylem were first worked out over 100 years ago, new insights into the underlying physics and physiology of the xylem continue to enlarge our understanding of what it takes to support photosynthesis on land. Encompassing topics from ion effects on hydraulic resistance to issues of vascular design, the articles in this VSI represent the vanguard of recent work on the long-distance transport of water in plants

TopAdjustment of photosynthetic processes of plants and cells to the light environment January 2007
Edited by Tom Sharkey
Plants require light for photosynthesis, but light in excess of what can be used by photosynthesis must be dissipated without damage. This collection of papers describes how plants and algae optimize light usage while minimizing damage.
