The Role of Cutinsomes in Plant Cuticle Formation
Cells, 2020 The cuticle commonly appears as a continuous lipophilic layer located at the outer epidermal cell walls of land plants. Cutin and waxes are its main components. Two methods for cutin synthesis are considered in plants.

The Complex Architecture of Plant Cuticles and Its Relation to Multiple Biological Functions
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Terrestrialization of vascular plants, i.e., Angiosperm, is associated with the development of cuticular barriers that prevent biotic and abiotic stresses and support plant growth and development.

Unraveling Cuticle Formation, Structure, and Properties by Using Tomato Genetic Diversity
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 The tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit has a thick, astomatous cuticle that has become a model for the study of cuticle formation, structure, and properties in plants.

Cutin synthesis: A slippery paradigm
Biointerphases, 2009 Despite its biological importance, the mechanism of construction of cutin, the polymer matrix of plant cuticles, has not yet been elucidated. Recently, progress on lipid barrier formation of polymers such as cutin and suberin has been recently reviewed by Pollard et al.1 In their review the authors state that the ubiquitous cutin is the least ...
