Analysis of composition, morphology, and biosynthesis of cuticular wax in wild type bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.) and its glossy mutant [PDF]

open access: yesFood Chemistry, 2021
In this study, cuticular wax load, its chemical composition, and biosynthesis, was studied during development of wild type (WT) bilberry fruit and its natural glossy type (GT) mutant. GT fruit cuticular wax load was comparable with WT fruits.

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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. Apple cuticular wax is an important part of the fruit epidermis that plays an essential role in apple development, storage, and adaptation to environmental ...

Biosynthesis and secretion of plant cuticular wax

Progress in Lipid Research, 2003
The cuticle covers the aerial portions of land plants. It consists of amorphous intracuticular wax embedded in cutin polymer, and epicuticular wax crystalloids that coat the outer plant surface and impart a whitish appearance. Cuticular wax is mainly composed of long-chain aliphatic compounds derived from very long chain fatty acids.

Cuticular wax of wheat

Planta, 1980
n-Alkanes, esters, aldehydes, free alcohols, β-diketones and hydroxy-β-diketones were found to be the lipid components of the cuticular waxes of common wheat Chinese Spring (Triticum aestivum L.). The ditelosomic lines 7A-L and 7D-S showed a dramatic decrease in the amount of β-diketones and hydroxy β-diketones which are reduced to traces.

Regulation of cuticular wax biosynthesis in plants under abiotic stress

Plant Biotechnology Reports, 2021
Cuticular waxes are the covering of the outer layer of the plant, consist of hydrocarbon appears like whitish film or bloom in plant organs. They play a vital role like a safeguard from different stress condition in the plant. Since environmental factors are active regulators of cuticular wax biosynthesis, composition, quantity, and deposition, it is ...

Cuticular wax biosynthesis in petunia petals: cloning and characterization of an alcohol-acyltransferase that synthesizes wax-esters

Planta, 2007
The surface of plants is covered by cuticular wax, which contains a mixture of very long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) derivatives. This wax surface provides a hydrophobic barrier which reduces non-stomatal water loss. One component of the cuticular wax is the alkyl esters, which typically contain a VLCFA esterified to an alcohol of a similar length.

Molecular Biology of Genes Involved in Cuticular Wax Biosynthesis

1997
The cuticle is the outermost interface between a plant and its environment, and as such plays a crucial role in the plant’s survival (Martin and Juniper, 1970; Kolattukudy, 1981). It consists of cutin embedded in a complex mixture of lipids commonly referred to as the cuticular waxes.

Wheat Topoisomerase VI Positively Regulates the Biosynthesis of Cuticular Wax and Cutin

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
Lipophilic cuticles mainly composed of wax mixtures and cutin matrices seal the plant epidermis and control plant development and environmental adaptation. Although cuticle-associated traits have been selected in the breeding of agronomically important cereal bread wheat, the biosynthesis of wheat cuticular wax and cutin remains poorly understood ...
