β-Carbonic anhydrase SlβCA4 is required for normal growth, carbon assimilation and stomatal plasticity in tomato

{beta}-Carbonic anhydrases ({beta}CAs) catalyze the reversible interconversion of CO2 and bicarbonate and contribute to plant carbon metabolism and environmental responses. However, the physiological functions of individual {beta}CA isoforms in crops remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated two chloroplast-localized {beta}CAs, Sl{beta}CA1 and Sl{beta}CA4, in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum).…
