Potassium Positively Affects Skin Characteristics of Sweet Potato Storage Roots
Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) growth faces two critical problems: variability in storage root (SR) number and size among individual plants, and skinning injuries that render the SR susceptible to pathogen infections during storage.

Background The skin (exocarp) of fleshy fruit is hugely diverse across species. Most fruit types have a live epidermal skin covered by a layer of cuticle made up of cutin while a few create an outermost layer of dead cells (peridermal layer).

Ontogenesis and structure of periderm in. Acer negundo L. and x Fatshedera lizei Guillaum
The ontogenesis and structure of the periderm were investigated in two dicotyledonous plants: Acer negundo L. and x Fatshedera lizei Guillaum. In Fatshedera lizei periderm is produced by the monolayer of phellogen proper, whereas in Acer negundo ...

ROOT SECONDARY GROWTH IN THORN APPLE AND HOT PEPPER PLANT SPECIES AT DIFFERENT GROWTH STAGES [PDF]
Two annual herbaceous species of Solanaceae namely, Datura stramonium L. and Capsicum frutescens L. were subjected to study the incidence of the secondary growth and consequents the formation of protective tissues in their roots. The main results were

At times of fruit skin failure, reticulation made of a wound-periderm is formed below the cracked skin in order to seal the damaged tissue. Preceding investigations shed light on the mechanisms underlying the formation of fruit skin reticulation ...

Cork Development: What Lies Within
The cork layer present in all dicotyledonous plant species with radial growth is the result of the phellogen activity, a secondary meristem that produces phellem (cork) to the outside and phelloderm inwards.

Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle
Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...
