Shell analysis of elliptical guard cells in higher plants: a review
نویسندگان
چکیده
This presentation reviews finite element shell analyses (linear and nonlinear, isotropic and anisotropic) of microscopic stomata modeled as doubly-elliptic toroidal shells. Stomata are the regulating valve in the seminal issue of water and carbon dioxide transport in plant biology. The finite element method allows more realistic modeling of complex geometries and material properties that are common in biology.

Shell and tube heat exchanger, singular baffles have been stimulated by means of the computational fluid dynamic technique and Fluent software. Several elliptical cross sections for the tubes are examined. So each model drawn by using Gambit software. In stimulating, 3D meshes is used for irregular Couper and tetrahedral networks. Also the performance of each of two shell and tube exchanger is ...
متن کاملGuard Cell Signal Transduction.
Guard cells surround stomatal pores in the epidermis of plant leaves and stems. Stomatal pore opening is essential for CO2 influx into leaves for photosynthetic carbon fixation. In exchange, plants lose over 95% of their water via transpiration to the atmosphere. Signal transduction mechanisms in guard cells integrate hormonal stimuli, light signals, water status, CO2, temperature, and other en...
متن کاملAvoidance of sodium accumulation by the stomatal guard cells of the halophyte Aster tripolium
X-ray microanatysis has revealed that the sodium content of the stomatal guard cells of Aster tripolium remains much lower than that of other leaf cells when the plants are grown at high salinity. Large amounts of sodium did, in contrast, accumulate in epidermal and subsidiary cells, and particularly in the mesophyll tissue, suggesting that a mechanism exists to limit the extent of its entry in...
متن کاملStudy on buckling of steel cylindrical shells with an elliptical cutout under combined loading
In this paper, simulation and analysis of thin steel cylindrical shells with elliptical cutouts under oblique loading were studied using finite element method. First, the numerical results were validated by the results of experimental test performed by an INSTRON 8802 servo hydraulic machine. Also, the effect of cutout angle (θ), cutout size, cutout position (L0/L) and cutout aspect ratios (b/a...
متن کاملA truncated version of an ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase promoter from potato specifies guard cell-selective expression in transgenic plants.
ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase) is a key regulatory enzyme in starch biosynthesis in higher plants. A 3.2-kb promoter of the large subunit gene of the AGPase from potato has been isolated and its activity analyzed in transgenic potato and tobacco plants using a promoter-beta-glucuronidase fusion system. The promoter was active in various starch-containing cells, including guard cells, tu...
