Revisiting plant cuticle biophysics

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 244, Issue 1, Page 65-73, October 2024.
Summary The plant cuticle is located at the interface of the plant with the environment, thus acting as a protective barrier against biotic and abiotic external stress factors, and regulating water loss. Additionally, it modulates mechanical stresses derived from internal tissues and also from the environment.

Herbarium specimens as tools for exploring the evolution of fatty acid‐derived natural products in plants

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 120, Issue 1, Page 9-18, October 2024.
SUMMARY Plants synthesize natural products via lineage‐specific offshoots of their core metabolic pathways, including fatty acid synthesis. Recent studies have shed light on new fatty acid‐derived natural products and their biosynthetic pathways in disparate plant species.

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

open access: yesPlant 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

open access: yesPlant, 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 ...

Structure and properties of waxes

open access: yes, 2017
Voskovi su sve krute ili tekuće tvari koje sadrže ugljikovodike, kiseline, alkohole i estere bez obzira na podrijetlo ili način dobivanja. Zbog njihove složene strukture nije ih jednostavno opisati i zato postoje razne podjele voskova.

Partial Liquid Phase Oxidation of Microcrystalline Waxes to Produce Emulsifiable Waxes

open access: yes, 2010
Partially oxidized hard microcrystalline waxes commonly known as emulsifiable waxes have numerous industrial applications. These are also used as substitutes or extenders for vegetable waxes.
