Chemical and structural analysis of Eucalyptus globulus and E. camaldulensis leaf cuticles: a lipidized cell wall region [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
The plant cuticle has traditionally been conceived as an independent hydrophobic layer that covers the external epidermal cell wall. Due to its complexity, the existing relationship between cuticle chemical composition and ultra-structure remains unclear

Mathematical Modelling of Hydrophilic Ionic Fertiliser Diffusion in Plant Cuticles: Lipophilic Surfactant Effects

open access: yesPlants, 2019
The global agricultural industry requires improved efficacy of sprays being applied to weeds and crops to increase financial returns and reduce environmental impact. Enhancing foliar penetration is one way to improve efficacy.

Plant cuticle under global change: Biophysical implications [PDF]

open access: bronzeGlobal Change Biology, 2018
Climatic stressors due to global change induce important modifications to the chemical composition of plant cuticles and their biophysical properties. In particular, plant cuticles can become heavier, stiffer and more inert, improving plant protection.

Could a cuticle be an active component of plant immunity?

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2023
The cuticle is the first physical barrier between the plant and the outer environment. The cuticle is no longer viewed as a rigid "inert sealer".
