The effects of MsTMT on stomatal morphology and development. A. Epidermal tracing from alfalfa mature leaflet overexpressing MsTMT. Scale bar = 50 μm. B and C. Overexpression of MsTMT led to a decrease in stomatal density on adaxial and abaxial sides. D and E. Pavement cell number was reduced on both leaflet sides of transgenic lines. Values are the mean ± SEM. Significant differences: *P ≤ 0.05, **P ≤ 0.01, ***P ≤ 0.001
