Schematic illustration for main mechanism functioned by CsPLDα. 1) CsPLDa and CsPLDα-produced PA can mediate the stomatal closure by ABA synthesis and metabolism to reduce water loss; 2) CsPLDα facilitates the accumulation of osmolytes to reduce water loss; 3) and CsPLDα also stabilizes the membrane lipid balance to inhibit ion leakage which led to a higher solute potential and keeps water intracellular
