MdERF2 regulates cuticle wax formation by directly activating MdLACS2, MdCER1 and MdCER6 of apple fruit during postharvest

Journal of Integrative Agriculture
Ethylene response factors 2 (ERF2) are essential for plant growth, fruit ripening, metabolism, and resistance to stress. In this study, the expression levels of the genes for MdERF2 implicated in the biosynthesis, composition and ultrastructure of fruit ...

Chemical analysis and biosynthesis of secondary alcohols in plant cuticular waxes

, 2009
The biosynthesis of wax components containing secondary functional groups was investigated in the current study. Two fundamentally different pathways were proposed to introduce the secondary functional groups. One pathway involves hydroxylation of elongated substrates.

ClAPRT3‐Mediated Adenine Salvage Pathway Enhances Purine Metabolites to Sustain Seed Vigour During Selfing in Cunninghamia lanceolata

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Selfing often causes inbreeding depression, especially during seed and seedling stages. However, some selfed progeny show low inbreeding depression with enhanced vigour, differing from inbred counterparts. This study investigates the molecular mechanisms maintaining seed vigour during selfing in Cunninghamia lanceolata.

Citrus WRKY28 acts as a transcription repressor to modulate cuticular long-chain alkanes accumulation in response to water loss stress

Industrial Crops and Products
The cuticular wax, composed of very long-chain fatty acids, plays an important role in postharvest preservation. WRKY transcription factors take part in the regulation of stress responses, while the specific roles related to wax metabolism are still not ...

Loss‐of‐Function Mutation in CER2‐LIKE1 Reduced Accumulation of Cuticular Wax and Susceptibility to Thrips in Welsh Onion

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes can form a hydrophobic barrier on aerial plant surfaces, which is essential for mediating plant‐environment interactions by providing protection against both biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study, a cuticular wax mutant (gl) was identified and characterised in Welsh onion (Allium fistulosum L.), exhibiting a functional ...

Comparative Analysis of the Cuticular Wax Morphology, Composition and Biosynthesis in Two Kumquat Cultivars During Fruit Development

Horticulturae
Cuticular wax plays an important role in the quality of kumquat (Fortunella crassifolia Swingle) fruit. In this study, the wax morphology, compositional profile of epi- and intracuticular wax, and crucial gene expression in ‘Rongan’ kumquat (RAK) and ...
