The PII protein in plants has been associated to many different tissue specialized roles concerning the Nitrogen assimilation pathways. We report here the further characterization of <i>L. japonicus</i> transgenic lines overexpressing the PII protein encoded by the <i>LjGLB1</i> gene that is strongly expressed in the guard cells of Lotus plants. Consistently with a putative role played by PII in that specific cellular context we have observed an alteration of the patterns of stomatal movement in ...[more]
