In guard cells the staining was evenly blue or punctate, consistent with CDPK34 expression. The negative control (‘no RT’) slides showed only large precipitates or no staining as expected. The ‘no RT’ negative controls refer to leaf peels in which the reverse transcription of mRNA was omitted, thus any staining in these slides occur by non-specific binding or precipitation of the stain. Similar results were observed in at least two biological replicates per mRNA.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.23361.013

Role of SAL1 and PAP in regulating seed germination.Wild type seed differentially regulates SAL1 transcript and protein abundance to accumulate more PAP than leaves. (A) SAL1 expression is the lowest during seed development and in dry seed (red boxes), and highest when the seed is imbibed (black arrow). Data visualized from publically-deposited microarray data using eFP Browser. (B) Analysis of publically-deposited microarray data in Genevestigator using the Genevisible tool reveals that the top four environmental changes that exert the highest degree of change in SAL1 transcript abundance, out of >3000 perturbations, are the transition from dry seed to germinating seed. This suggests that the transcriptional repression of SAL1 and the associated PAP accumulation in seed are key aspects of seed development and dormancy.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.23361.017
	Figure 9. Model for fine-tuning of stomatal closure by PAP retrograde signaling.Proposed intersection between PAP and ABA signaling during drought stress, or in ost1-2 sal1-8 / abi1-1 sal1-8 treated with ABA. Binding of ABA to its receptors (PYR/PYLs) inactivates the inhibitory PP2Cs, thus allowing activation of OST1 for phosphorylation of proteins such as transcription factors and SLAC1. This is the major pathway for stomatal closure. Additionally, ABA signaling results in Ca2+ release which could activate multiple Ca2+ signaling proteins including CDPKs and CBLs/CIPKs thus allowing phosphorylation and activation of SLAC1. Many of these ABA and Ca2+ signaling proteins can be regulated by PAP predominantly via PAP-XRN-mediated retrograde signaling. The CDPK activation of SLAC1 can occur in parallel with Ca2+-independent OST1, allowing a convergence between chloroplast and ABA signaling at this key anion channel for stomatal closure. It is possible that PAP can also regulate stomatal closure through other proteins, though there is as yet no evidence for this in plants. The relative contributions of each pathway towards control of stomatal closure are indicated by the thickness of the arrows and lines. Solid lines and arrows indicate characterized pathways. Signaling pathways which have not been fully studied are indicated with dashed lines and ‘?'.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.23361.018
