Integrative transcriptomics nominates a 1R-MYB candidate associated with epidermal wax-related traits and osmotic-stress responses in Kentucky bluegrass [PDF]
Cuticular wax-associated epidermal traits may contribute to water-loss regulation, yet their regulatory basis in Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) remains poorly defined.

Identification and Analysis of Cuticular Wax Biosynthesis Related Genes in <i>Salicornia europaea</i> Under NaCl Treatment. [PDF]
Salinity is a major environmental factor that adversely affects plant growth and production. Cuticular wax protects plants against external environmental stress.

Regulatory mechanisms underlying cuticular wax biosynthesis
AbstractPlants are sessile organisms that have developed hydrophobic cuticles that cover their aerial epidermal cells to protect them from terrestrial stresses. The cuticle layer is mainly composed of cutin, a polyester of hydroxy and epoxy fatty acids, and cuticular wax, a mixture of very-long-chain fatty acids (>20 carbon atoms) and their ...

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

MYB94 and MYB96 Additively Activate Cuticular Wax Biosynthesis in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Aerial plant surfaces are coated by a cuticular wax layer to protect against environmental stresses, such as desiccation. In this study, we investigated the functional relationship between MYB94 and MYB96 transcription factors involved in cuticular wax biosynthesis.

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
