The Plant Cuticle

, 1991
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).

An overview on plant cuticle biomechanics.

Plant Science, 2011
Plant biomechanics combines the principles of physics, chemistry and engineering to answer questions about plant growth, development and interaction with the environment. The epidermal-growth-control theory, postulated in 1867 and verified in 2007, states that epidermal cells determine the rate of organ elongation since they are under tension, while ...

Studies on plant cuticle.: VI. The isolation and fractionation of cuticular waxes

Annals of Applied Biology, 1964
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, 1980
The 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.

Studies on plant cuticle

Annals of Applied Biology, 1967
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 ...

Studies on plant cuticle

Annals of Applied Biology, 1958
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

Sustainable Fabrication of Plant Cuticle-Like Packaging Films from Tomato Pomace Agro-Waste, Beeswax, and Alginate

ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering, 2018
Plant cuticles have been used as models to produce hydrophobic films composed of sodium alginate, the fatty acid fraction of tomato pomace agrowaste, and beeswax.
