Revisiting plant cuticle biophysics
New PhytologistSummaryThe 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. Recent advances in the understanding of the

SUMMARYThe isolation from plant tissues of cuticular waxes uncontaminated by cellular extractives is described. Surface waxes are removed by washing leaves and fruits with chloroform at room temperature; other solvents give lower yields of waxes, apparently because of selective solvent action.A method is described for the quantitative fractionation of ...

Phase transitions in plant cuticles
Biophysics of Structure and Mechanism, 1980The effect of temperature on wet plant cuticles has been investigated with the following techniques: Calorimetry, densitometry, spin-label electron-spin-resonance-(ESR)-spectroscopy, photo bleaching, and light and electron microscopy. At low temperatures cuticles ofCitrus aurantium L.

SUMMARYThe cuticles of plants of the Saxifragaceae, Rosaceae and Leguminosae are compared by chemical methods. Wide differences occur in the deposits of surface wax and cuticular membrane even within species of one genus. The relative proportions of four hydroxy‐fatty acids in the cutin acids of plants of the families are assessed and the value of ...

The waxy coverings of the leaves of different species of plant have been fractionated into wax, acidic, volatile and oil components. The levels of the waxy deposits on the leaves and the relative proportions of the principal components of the waxy coverings differed widely. Wax predominated in the waxy coverings of the leaves of cabbage and cauliflower

Most plant-pathogenic fungi gain access into their host by penetration of unwounded tissue. Some pathogens such as rusts invade the host via stomata (Hoch and Staples, 1987 and Chapter 2), whereas others penetrate the intact leaf surface without the requirement of natural openings (Aist, 1976; Emmett, 1975; Kunoh, 1984).

SUMMARYSurfaces of apple, banana, blackcurrant, broad bean, cabbage, coffee, hydrangea, pea, rose, Eucalyptus, Exochordia and Rhus leaves and apple fruit are classified by a standardized wetting test into those that are water‐repellent, those that are easily wetted and those over which water spreads without wetting.

The biophysical design of plant cuticles: an overview
New Phytologist, 2010SummaryThe outer surfaces of epidermal cell walls are impregnated with an extracellular matrix called the cuticle. This composite matrix provides several functions at the interface level that enable plants to thrive in different habitats and withstand adverse environmental conditions.

STUDIES ON PLANT CUTICLE: THE CUTIN COMPONENT OF THE CUTICLES OF LEAVES
Annals of Applied Biology, 1959Methods are described for the chemical separation from leaf material of the ventral and dorsal surface cuticular membranes and for the determination of cutin in the membranes and leaf tissues.The cutin contents of the cuticular membranes separated from leaves of laurel, rhododendron, and Euonymus, and of leaf tissues of cauliflower, red beet, banana ...
