Photosynthetic performance and carbon metabolism in the ear organs of oats under drought stress by Jiaqi Fang, Yuan Zhan, Baowen Zhao, Yan Zhao, Youjun Chen, Qingping Zhou, Hui Wang

“…The results showed that stomatal tissues were present in both the inner and outer epidermis in the glumes and lemmas, and chloroplasts existed in the cells of both ear organs. Compared to CK-14, the absolute water content was significantly decreased in the flag leaves, stems, and seeds under DS-14, while drought stress did not significantly affect the water status of the glumes, lemmas, and peduncles. …”
