Epigenetic Modifications Related to Potato Skin Russeting [PDF]
Plants, 2023 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.

The transcriptome of potato tuber phellogen reveals cellular functions of cork cambium and genes involved in periderm formation and maturation [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractThe periderm is a protective corky tissue that is formed through the cambial activity of phellogen cells, when the outer epidermis is damaged. Timely periderm formation is critical to prevent pathogen invasion and water loss. The outer layers of the potato periderm, the tuber skin, serves as a model to study cork development.

Cork Oak Young and Traumatic Periderms Show PCD Typical Chromatin Patterns but Different Chromatin-Modifying Genes Expression [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Plants are subjected to adverse conditions being outer protective tissues fundamental to their survival. Tree stems are enveloped by a periderm made of cork cells, resulting from the activity of the meristem phellogen.

Synchrony strategies of six gall inducers that share a superhost, Eugenia copacabanensis (Myrtaceae) [PDF]
Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 225-239, January 2026.Galling insects on the superhost Eugenia copacabanensis have developed different life cycle strategies to synchronize with plant seasonal changes and avoid competition for resources. Abstract The life cycles of galling insects are synchronized with their host plant phenology, allowing them to better explore available resources.

Roots Structure and Development of Austrobaileya scandens (Austrobaileyaceae) and Implications for Their Evolution in Angiosperms [PDF]
, 2020 Since the resolution of the ANA grade [Amborellales, Nymphaeales, Austrobaileyales] as sister to all other flowering plants, a few comparative studies of root structure have suggested that some of their anatomical traits could be of importance to ...

Austral Entomology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 449-463, November 2023., 2023 Abstract Larval feeding by the moth genus Ogmograptis (Bucculatricidae: Lepidoptera) creates one of the most iconic features of the Australian bush—the ‘scribbles’ found on smooth‐barked Eucalyptus. The taxonomic history of Ogmograptis has been challenging, with members of the genus being initially described in four different genera representing three ...

PHELLOGEN ACTIVITY IN ROBINIA PSEUDACACIA L. [PDF]
New Phytologist, 1967 SummaryPhellogen activity in Robinia pseudacacia and some of the factors controlling it were investigated. A highly active phellogen is characterized by the production of large thin‐walled phellem cells. A layer of flat, thick‐walled phellem cells next to the phellogen characterizes an inactive meristem.

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Viscum album
Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 3, Page 701-739, March 2023., 2023 Mistletoe is a charismatic parasite of tree crowns with a long history of folklore and connections with Christmas celebrations. This, and its need for light, helps explain why it is most common in human‐made habitats across Europe. Once thought to benignly take just water and nutrients from its host it is now known to take carbon as well which can lead
