Plants utilize sophisticated mechanisms and morphologies to mitigate stress. The epidermis, a single-cell boundary layer to the external environment, offers protection against stresses and is comprised of diverse specialized cell-types. In grasses, bulliform cells, which are highly vacuolated and positioned in the adaxial leaf epidermis, are utilized to mitigate drought stress by mechanically mediating the leaf rolling response, thereby reducing transpirational water losses. Considering that leaf rolling intensity directly relates to plant water status, other plant features that enhance water capture and utilization may also influence the leaf rolling response. As such, the structure-function relationships between bulliform cells, leaf roll...
