Summary

It was concluded that maximum stomatal apertures could not be obtained in at least one of the species (the grass Triticum aestivum) without a substantial reduction in subsidiary cell osmotic and turgor pressure duringStomatal opening to overcome the large mechanical advantage of subsidiary cells.
