OsPLS4 Is Involved in Cuticular Wax Biosynthesis and Affects Leaf Senescence in Rice
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Leaf senescence is one of the most common factors that affects the growth and yield of rice. Although numerous genes affecting leaf senescence have been identified, few involved in cuticular wax synthesis have been described for rice premature leaf ...

Cuticular waxes affect fruit surface color in blueberries
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, 2023 Societal Impact StatementIn blueberry, fruit color is one of the most important quality traits affecting consumers' choices. Both pigments and waxes impact fruit color; however, their roles have not been clearly elucidated. Here, the contributions of waxes and anthocyanins to fruit color are characterized.
