First, yes, higher stomatal density increase the photosynthetic rate by increasing stomatal conductance and CO2 assimilation rate.
Secondly, stomatal density can be modulated by overexpressing STOMAGEN/EPFL9 or silencing EPIDERMAL PATTERNING FACTOR 1, a positive and negative regulator of stomatal development respectively.
Article Enhancement of leaf photosynthetic capacity through increase...
Stomatal parts are the ones through where the photosynthesis gas for exchange passes, and defintely if the density of the stomata bodies/pores increase per given area of leaf, then there will be an increase on photosynthesis.
