AtMYB41 acts as a dual‐function transcription factor that regulates the formation of lipids in an organ‐ and development‐dependent manner

Plant Biology, Volume 26, Issue 4, Page 568-582, June 2024.
MYB41 acts as an activator and repressor on lipid biosynthesis in an organ‐ and development‐dependent manner. Abstract The plant cuticle controls non‐stomatal water loss and can serve as a barrier against biotic agents, whereas the heteropolymer suberin and its associated waxes are deposited constitutively at specific cell wall locations. While several

Fatty alcohols, a minor component of the tree tobacco surface wax, are associated with defence against caterpillar herbivory

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 47, Issue 2, Page 664-681, February 2024.
Abstract Despite decades of research resulting in a comprehensive understanding of epicuticular wax metabolism, the function of these almost ubiquitous metabolites in plant–herbivore interactions remains unresolved. In this study, we examined the effects of CRISPR‐induced knockout mutations in four Nicotiana glauca (tree tobacco) wax metabolism genes ...
