Molecular and genetic characterization of genes involved in maize cuticular wax biosynthesis
, 2018 A mutagenesis experiment was undertaken to identify maize genes involved in the production of epicuticular wax. A collection of 186 gl mutants was tested for allelism with the existing collection of cuticular wax mutants via a combination of mapping and complementation experiments.

The roads most traveled: genetic convergence in plant repeated evolution
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Observation of a genotype–phenotype association in a focal lineage (magnifying lens) provides a starting point for predicting homolog reuse during repeated trait evolution. This review suggests that the likelihood that mutations in homologous genes contribute to similar phenotypes in other lineages depends on both mutational effect stability (MES) and ...

microRNA‐mediated control of cell fate specification and patterning in Marchantia polymorpha
New Phytologist, EarlyView.The gemma developmental program in Marchantia polymorpha is coordinated by MpMIR166‐mediated repression of MpC3HDZ and auxin homeostasis. Summary MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non‐coding RNA molecules essential for growth and development in eukaryotes. In plants, the master gene DICER‐LIKE 1 (DCL1) catalyzes the biogenesis of miRNAs by processing double‐

Uncovering the mechanisms involved in regulating cuticular wax biosynthesis in Arabidopsis thaliana
, 2014 The cuticle is a protective layer that coats the primary aerial surfaces of land plants, and mediates plant interactions with the environment. It is synthesized by epidermal cells and is composed of a cutin polyester matrix that is embedded and covered with cuticular waxes.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.A model of the C‐repeat binding factor–salicylic acid (CBF–SA) module in plant wound healing. Summary Repairing damaged tissues is essential for the survival of all organisms. In plants, tissue injury rapidly triggers defense and repair programs. However, the molecular mechanisms linking early injury cues to the later stage of wound repair remain ...

, 2015 The primary aerial surfaces of higher plants are covered by a continuous hydrophobic lipid layer called the cuticle, which is synthesized by the epidermal cells and provides protection against desiccation and environmental stresses. The cuticle is mainly

The genetics of cuticular wax biosynthesis [PDF]
, 1994 Tester stocks carrying confirmed mutations at the gl1, gl2, gl3, gl4, gl6, gl8, gl14, gl15. glI7. gl18, and gl19 loci and the two duplicate gene pairs gl5 & gl20 and gl21 & gl22 have been recovered.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Identification of new regulators of Arabidopsis IRT1 endocytosis and metal transport using TurboID. TurboID proximity labeling of the Arabidopsis IRT1 root metal transporter identified new IRT1‐interacting proteins upon different metal regimes. Among validated candidates, the endosome‐localized NHX5 Na+ (K+)/H+ antiporter and the plasma membrane ...
