Comparative Analysis of Cuticular Wax in Various Grape Cultivars During Berry Development and After Storage

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2021
Cuticular wax covering the surface of fleshy fruit is closely related to fruit glossiness, development, and post-harvest storage quality. However, the information about formation characteristics and molecular mechanisms of cuticular wax in grape berry is

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 cuticular wax biosynthesis remain poorly understood.

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.

GCN5 contributes to stem cuticular wax biosynthesis by histone acetylation of CER3 in Arabidopsis. [PDF]

J Exp Bot, 2018
Cuticular wax is a major component of the surface cuticle of plants, which performs crucial functions in optimizing plant growth. Histone acetylation regulates gene expression in diverse biological processes, but its role in cuticular wax synthesis is not well understood.

Recent Advances in Cuticular Wax Biosynthesis and Its Regulation in Arabidopsis [PDF]

Molecular Plant, 2013
The aerial parts of land plants are covered with cuticular waxes that limit non-stomatal water loss and gaseous exchanges, and protect plants from ultraviolet radiation and pathogen attacks. They are composed of very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs; C20 to C34) in addition to their derivatives, aldehydes, alkanes, primary and secondary alcohols, and wax

EgMIXTA1, a MYB-Type Transcription Factor, Promotes Cuticular Wax Formation in Eustoma grandiflorum Leaves

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
In the aerial plant organs, cuticular wax forms a hydrophobic layer that can protect cells from dehydration, repel pathogen attacks, and prevent organ fusion during development. The MIXTA gene encodes an MYB-like transcription factor, which is associated

DEWAX2 Transcription Factor Negatively Regulates Cuticular Wax Biosynthesis in Arabidopsis Leaves [PDF]

Plant and Cell Physiology, 2018
The aerial parts of terrestrial plants are covered with hydrophobic wax layers, which represent the primary barrier between plant cells and the environment and act to protect plants from abiotic and biotic stresses. Although total wax loads are precisely regulated in an environmental- or organ-specific manner, regulatory mechanisms underlying cuticular

Estimation of the solubility parameters of model plant surfaces and agrochemicals: a valuable tool for understanding plant surface interactions [PDF]

, 2012
Background Most aerial plant parts are covered with a hydrophobic lipid-rich cuticle, which is the interface between the plant organs and the surrounding environment.

Fruit characteristics and cuticle triterpenes as related to postharvest quality of highbush blueberries [PDF]

, 2016
Chilean fresh blueberries take 20-50 days to arrive by boat to the Northern hemisphere, softening and dehydration being the main defects upon arrival. The effect of maturity at harvest (75% blue, 100% blue, and overripe) on cuticular triterpene content ...

Regulation of tomato fruit ripening [PDF]

, 2009
Fruit ripening is a sophisticatedly orchestrated developmental process, unique to plants, that results in major physiological and metabolic changes, ultimately leading to fruit decay and seed dispersal.
