DMBQ Induces CARD1-Dependent Defenses

Caption

Surface temperature of leaves 3 hours after exposure to DMBQ. The surface temperature was lower in the card1-2 mutants (top heat images) than in wildtype plants (bottom heat images). Higher temperature indicates closed pores (stomata) in the leaves, a typical defense that blocks invaders from entering the plant.
