Abstract Stomata of plant leaves open to enable CO2 entry for photosynthesis and close when CO2 in the leaf is elevated. CO2 is thought to promote stomatal closure in part by activating the SLAC1 anion channel at the guard cell plasma membrane. Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) contribute to this activation, but their contribution as distinct from CO2-H2CO3 catalysis remains controversial.
