Cuticular Waxes in Altered Environments and Their Role in Leaf Water Loss Dynamics
ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes undeniably form the primary barrier restricting uncontrolled water loss from leaves, yet the functional consequences of environmentally induced wax modifications for residual (cuticular) transpiration remain a matter of debate. This review summarises current knowledge on how major abiotic stimuli influence foliar cuticular wax ...

ABSTRACT Mesophyll conductance (gm) is a key component of internal CO2 diffusion and can limit photosynthesis in C3 leaves. Temperature responses of gm are commonly treated as intrinsic properties of the leaf, yet it remains unclear whether they acclimate to growth conditions. Here, we tested whether growth temperature alters the thermal sensitivity of

ABSTRACT Plant‐fungus‐virus tripartite interactions represent complex ecological systems in which mutualistic endophytes can influence host physiology, yet the molecular basis of endophyte‐mediated defence remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that the endophytic fungus Penicillium pinophilum EU0013 suppresses the yellow strain of cucumber ...

Trichomes in Plant Defence, Development and Metabolic Integration Under Environmental Stress
ABSTRACT Among various plant defence strategies, trichomes are tiny hair‐like structures on the epidermis that aid in defence, environmental adaptation and the production of valuable secondary metabolites. This review features trichomes as frontline guards for plant survival, integrating their structural, physiological and metabolic roles in ...
