Transcriptomic analysis of cork during seasonal growth highlights regulatory and developmental processes from phellogen to phellem formation [PDF]
The phellogen or cork cambium stem cells that divide periclinally and outwardly specify phellem or cork. Despite the vital importance of phellem in protecting the radially-growing plant organs and wounded tissues, practically only the suberin ...

Irrigation Effect on Yield, Skin Blemishes, Phellem Formation, and Total Phenolics of Red Potatoes [PDF]
Dark Red Norland is an important potato cultivar in the fresh market due to its attractive bright, red colour, and good yield. However, skin blemishes such as silver patch, surface cracking, and russeting can negatively influence the tuber skin quality ...

Lignin Composition and Structure Differs between Xylem, Phloem and Phellem in Quercus suber L. [PDF]
The composition and structure of lignin in different tissues - phellem (cork), phloem and xylem (wood) - of Quercus suber was studied. Whole cell walls and their respective isolated milled lignins were analyzed by pyrolysis coupled with gas ...

A single-nuclei transcriptome census of the Arabidopsis maturing root identifies that MYB67 controls phellem cell maturation [PDF]
The periderm provides a protective barrier in many seed plant species. The development of the suberized phellem, which forms the outermost layer of this important tissue, has become a trait of interest for enhancing both plant resilience to stresses and plant-mediated CO2 sequestration in soils.

Potato Periderm Development and Tuber Skin Quality [PDF]
The periderm is a corky tissue that replaces the epidermis when the latter is damaged, and is critical for preventing pathogen invasion and water loss. The periderm is formed through the meristematic activity of phellogen cells (cork cambium). The potato

Epigenetic Modifications Related to Potato Skin Russeting [PDF]
Potato tuber skin is a protective corky tissue consisting of suberized phellem cells. Smooth-skinned varieties are characterized by a clean, shiny appearance compared to the darker hue of russeted potatoes.

Cork Development: What Lies Within [PDF]
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.

Dynamic Field Assessment of Canopy Development and Periderm Maturation in Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) [PDF]
Background: Periderm development in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is critical for protecting tubers from biotic and abiotic stress, yet the relationship between periderm maturation, canopy development, and tuber growth during the active growing season ...

Qualitative and Quantitative Anatomical Analysis of the Constitutive Bark of Q. ilex x Q. suber Hybrids [PDF]
Hybridization and introgression between cork oak (Quercus suber) and holm oak (Q. ilex) have traditionally been reckoned as undesirable processes, since hybrid individuals lack the profitable bark characteristics of cork oak.
