Changes in wax composition but not amount enhance cuticular transpiration [PDF]

, 2023
This study focuses on the role of the qualitative leaf wax composition in modulating the cuticular water loss using a Populus × canescens cer6 mutant line, which accumulates C34–C46 wax ester dimers and is reduced in wax monomers >C24. The two literature-

Tubular epicuticular wax is an important trait for limiting non-stomatal water loss from leaves in several Dianthus species

Ornamental Plant Research, 2022
Cuticular wax plays an important role in plant drought tolerance by limiting non-stomatal water loss and has a diverse micromorphology and composition.

Advances in Biosynthesis, Regulation, and Function of Apple Cuticular Wax

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
A layer of cuticular wax is deposited on the surface of terrestrial plants, which reduces the damage caused by environmental stress and maintains growth in a relatively stable internal environment.

Plasticity of the Cuticular Transpiration Barrier in Response to Water Shortage and Resupply in Camellia sinensis: A Role of Cuticular Waxes

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The cuticle is regarded as a non-living tissue; it remains unknown whether the cuticle could be reversibly modified and what are the potential mechanisms.

Modification of Cuticular Wax Composition and Biosynthesis by Epichloë gansuensis in Achnatherum inebrians at Different Growing Periods

Agriculture, 2022
Cuticular wax plays a critical role as a plant protectant against various environmental stresses. We predicted that the presence of the mutualistic fungal endophyte Epichloë gansuensis in Achnatherum inebrians would change both the composition of leaf ...

Ectopic expression of an apple ABCG transporter gene MdABCG25 increases plant cuticle wax accumulation and abiotic stress tolerance

Fruit Research, 2023
A number of enzymes and transcription factors involved in cuticular wax biosynthesis have been identified in numerous plant species. The pathway of wax biosynthesis is relatively definite. The molecular basis of cuticular wax deposition is still unclear,

Environment-Driven Adaptations of Leaf Cuticular Waxes Are Inheritable for Medicago ruthenica

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Cuticular waxes covering the plant surface play pivotal roles in helping plants adapt to changing environments. However, it is still not clear whether the responses of plant cuticular waxes to their growing environments are inheritable.

Wheat Transcription Factor TaMYB60 Modulates Cuticular Wax Biosynthesis by Activating TaFATB and TaCER1 Expression. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci
Cuticular wax mixtures cover the epidermis of land plants and shield plant tissues from abiotic and biotic stresses. Although cuticular wax-associated traits are employed to improve the production of bread wheat, regulatory mechanisms underlying wheat ...

Preharvest application of 1-methylcyclopropene and Ethephon altered cuticular wax biosynthesis and fruit quality of apples at harvest and during cold storage

Horticultural Plant Journal, 2022
To investigate the roles of Harvista (a sprayable 1-methylcyclopropene, 1-MCP, available component is 150 g · hm-2) and Ethephon (1 mL · L-1) applied at preharvest in apple (Malus domestica Borkh. 'Golden Delicious') fruit cuticular wax biosynthesis, the

Leaf Cuticular Transpiration Barrier Organization in Tea Tree Under Normal Growth Conditions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The cuticle plays a major role in restricting nonstomatal water transpiration in plants. There is therefore a long-standing interest to understand the structure and function of the plant cuticle.
