- An overview of models of stomatal conductance at the leaf level. (2010, background): “Most studies have been biased by the underestimation of the diffusive resistance to CO2 beyond stomata, within the mesophyll, that uncouples Ci from CO2 concentration in chloroplast, where assimilation operates (Flexas et al. 2008).”
- Photosynthesis under drought and salt stress: regulation mechanisms from whole plant to cell. (2009, background): “In addition, g m also responds quickly to changes in temperature, light and CO 2 concentration (Flexas et al. , 2008).”
- Salt tolerance is associated with differences in ion accumulation, biomass allocation and photosynthesis in cowpea cultivars (2009, background): “…the larger SLA of Pitiúba implies that properties of their leaves were altered by salt stress in such a way that they (i) would allow lower self-shade per leaf area unit and (ii) would create a relatively short path from stomata to chloroplasts over which CO2 must diffuse (Flexas et al. 2008).”
- Photosynthesis and drought: can we make metabolic connections from available data? (2011, background): “This limitation includes a stomatal and a mesophyll component (Flexas et al., 2008).”
- Improving water use efficiency in grapevines: potential physiological targets for biotechnological improvement. (2010, background): “Concerning gm, evidence has accumulated showing that, contrary to early thoughts, this is finite and variable, and that it can change as fast as gs in response to environmental variables (reviewed in Flexas et al., 2008).”
- Mesophyll diffusion conductance to CO2: an unappreciated central player in photosynthesis. (2012, background): “Recent reviews have already highlighted the incidence of varying environmental conditions such as soil water vailability, salinity, growth irradiance and temperature on gm [12, 14].”
- Review: the interaction between rootstocks and cultivars (Vitis vinifera L.) to enhance drought tolerance in grapevine (2014, background): “In the absence of root-to-shoot signals, differences in the leaf anatomy of the scion might play a more relevant role in the regulation of photosynthesis, as they can present different mesophyll conductance to CO2 (gm), i.e. the capacity for CO2 diffusion inside leaves (Flexas et al. 2008).”
- Variability in water use efficiency at the leaf level among Mediterranean plants with different growth forms (2009, background): “resistances to CO2 (Flexas et al. 2008) and/or feedback limitations on photosynthesis due to end-product”
- Photosynthetic responses to stress in Mediterranean evergreens: Mechanisms and models (2014, background): “sclerophytic leaves with lower gm (Evans et al., 2009; Flexas et al., 2008; Niinemets et al., 2009a,b; Terashima et al., 2006, 2011; Tomás et al., 2013; Tosens et al., 2012; Warren, 2008b).”
- Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, positive): “This is thought to aid photorespiratory CO2 scavenging and/or maximization of CO2diffusion into the chloroplast stroma (Evans and von Caemmerer, 1996; Flexas et al., 2008).”
- Coupling between the terrestrial carbon and water cycles—a review (2019, background): “…et al 2011, De Boer et al 2012, de Boer et al 2016), variations in mesophyll conductance with changing environmental conditions (Bernacchi 2002, Flexas et al 2008, 2012, Niinemets et al 2009, Campany et al 2016), as well as the degree of coupling of the biosphere with the overlying atmosphere…”
- Drought-induced changes in development and function of grapevine (Vitis spp.) organs and in their hydraulic and non-hydraulic interactions at the whole-plant level: a physiological and molecular update (2010, background): “Photoinhibition, feedback inhibition through source–sink interactions, and decreased mesophyll conductance to CO2 have been suggested as important limiting factors, but none of these processes has been demonstrated to predominate (Flexas et al. 2008).”
