The MIEL1 E3 Ubiquitin Ligase Negatively Regulates Cuticular Wax Biosynthesis in Arabidopsis Stems [PDF]

Plant and Cell Physiology, 2017
Cuticular wax is an important hydrophobic layer that covers the plant aerial surface. Cuticular wax biosynthesis is shaped by multiple layers of regulation. In particular, a pair of R2R3-type MYB transcription factors, MYB96 and MYB30, are known to be the main participants in cuticular wax accumulation.

Chemical composition and water permeability of fruit and leaf cuticles of Olea europaea L. [PDF]

, 2017
The plant cuticle, protecting against uncontrolled water loss, covers olive (Olea europaea) fruits and leaves. The present study describes the organ-specific chemical composition of the cuticular waxes and the cutin and compares three developmental ...

Transcriptome Analyses Revealed the Wax and Phenylpropanoid Biosynthesis Pathways Related to Disease Resistance in Rootstock-Grafted Cucumber

Plants, 2023
Cucumbers (Cucumis sativus L.) are a global popular vegetable and are widely planted worldwide. However, cucumbers are susceptible to various infectious diseases such as Fusarium and Verticillium wilt, downy and powdery mildew, and bacterial soft rot ...

Waterproofing in Arabidopsis: Following Phenolics and Lipids In situ by Confocal Raman Microscopy [PDF]

, 2016
Waterproofing of the aerial organs of plants imposed a big evolutionary step during the colonization of the terrestrial environment. The main plant polymers responsible of water repelling are lipids and lignin, which play also important roles in the ...

Characterization of increased cuticular wax mutant and analysis of genes involved in wax biosynthesis in Dianthus spiculifolius [PDF]

Horticulture Research, 2018
Cuticular wax formation on the surface of plant leaves is associated with drought-stress tolerance. The identification of wax biosynthesis-related genes will contribute to the genetic improvement of drought resistance in plants. In this study, we characterize a novel Dianthus spiculifolius mutant with increased cuticular wax.

Role of homeodomain leucine zipper (HD-Zip) iv transcription factors in plant development and plant protection from deleterious environmental factors [PDF]

, 2013
Homeobox genes comprise an important group of genes that are responsible for regulation of developmental processes. These genes determine cell differentiation and cell fate in all eukaryotic organisms, starting from the early stages of embryo development.

Cuticular Wax Biosynthesis is Up-Regulated by the MYB94 Transcription Factor in Arabidopsis [PDF]

Plant and Cell Physiology, 2014
The aerial parts of all land plants are covered with hydrophobic cuticular wax layers that act as the first barrier against the environment. The MYB94 transcription factor gene is expressed in abundance in aerial organs and shows a higher expression in the stem epidermis than within the stem.

Molecular and Evolutionary Mechanisms of Cuticular Wax for Plant Drought Tolerance

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Cuticular wax, the first protective layer of above ground tissues of many plant species, is a key evolutionary innovation in plants. Cuticular wax safeguards the evolution from certain green algae to flowering plants and the diversification of plant taxa

Acyl CoA Binding Proteins are Required for Cuticle Formation and Plant Responses to Microbes [PDF]

, 2012
Fatty acids (FA) and lipids are well known regulators of plant defense. Our previous studies have shown that components of prokaryotic (plastidal) FA biosynthesis pathway regulate various aspects of plant defense.
