White Light Enhances Adhesive Strength Between Epidermal and Inner Tissues of Pea Epicotyls via Accumulation of Cell Wall‐Bound p‐Coumaric Acid [PDF]
Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 1, January/February 2026.ABSTRACT The epidermal and inner tissues of stem organs adhere via the cell wall, and the adhesion of both tissues is involved in the structural integrity of the stem. We have developed a method to quantitatively measure adhesive strength between these tissues.

A new type of epicotyl dormancy in crypto-viviparous fruits of Aegiceras corniculatum (Primulaceae), the first report from a true mangrove species [PDF]
Plant Ecology and EvolutionBackground and aims – Although viviparous seeds of mangrove species have traditionally been considered non-dormant, our previous study has shown that Aegiceras corniculatum, a crypto-vivipary species exhibits epicotyl dormancy.
