Subtle interplay between trichome development and cuticle formation in plants.
New Phytologist, 2021 Trichomes and cuticles are key protective epidermal specializations. This review highlights the genetic interplay existing between trichome and cuticle formation in a variety of species.

Nature Communications, 2021 Most of the aerial organs of vascular plants are covered by a protective layer known as the cuticle, the main purpose of which is to limit transpirational water loss.

Insect cuticle: a critical determinant of insecticide resistance.
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2018 Intense use of insecticides has resulted in the selection of extreme levels of resistance in insect populations. Therefore understanding the molecular basis of insecticide resistance mechanisms becomes critical.

Origins and Evolution of Cuticle Biosynthetic Machinery in Land Plants1[OPEN]
Plant Physiology, 2020 Portions of the cuticle biosynthetic machinery originated in the last common ancestor of embryophytes and underwent evolution and diversification in land plants.

Journal of Fungi, 2019 Entomopathogenic fungi are the only insect pathogens able to infect their host by adhesion to the surface and penetration through the cuticle. Although the possibility of fungal infection per os was described almost a century ago, there is an information

Scientific Reports, 2020 Cuticle is the major transpiration barrier that restricts non-stomatal water loss and is closely associated with plant drought tolerance. Although multiple efforts have been made, it remains controversial what factors shape up the cuticular transpiration

Cuticle thickness affects dynamics of volatile emission from petunia flowers
Nature Chemical Biology, 2020 The plant cuticle is the final barrier for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to cross for release to the atmosphere, yet its role in the emission process is poorly understood.

The kunitz domain protein BLI-5 plays a functionally conserved role in cuticle formation in a diverse range of nematodes [PDF]
, 2010 The cuticle of parasitic nematodes performs many critical functions and is essential for proper development and for protection from the host immune response.
