Root cell wall plasticity in iron homeostasis: an overlooked frontier in plant nutrition. [PDF]
Summary Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development, yet its availability in soils is often limited or excessive, leading to widespread Fe deficiency or toxicity that constrains crop productivity. While Fe uptake, transport, and signaling pathways have been well characterized, the role of the root cell wall as a dynamic ...

Surface Properties of Suberin [PDF]
The surface energy of suberin was determined by four different methods, namely, (i) contact angle measurements, (ii) Wilhelmy plate measurements, (iii) maximum bubble pressure, and (iv) inverse gas chromatography (IGC). The first three methods gave a gammasub value in the range 40-50 mN m-1 at room temperature.

Gibberellin and abscisic acid transporters facilitate endodermal suberin formation in Arabidopsis
The authors identified a sub-clade of NPF transporters that orchestrates GA12 long-distance shoot-to-root translocation. Once in the phloem unloading zone, ABA and GA are loaded into pericycle vacuoles and then slowly released to induce endodermal ...

Arabidopsis lectin EULS3 is involved in ABA signaling in roots [PDF]
The Arabidopsis thaliana lectin ArathEULS3 is upregulated in particular stress conditions and upon abscisic acid (ABA) treatment. ABA is a plant hormone important for plant growth and stress responses.

Discovery of GDSL-domain proteins as key players for suberin polymerization and degradation
Plant roots acquire nutrients and water while managing interactions with the soil microbiota. The root endodermis provides an extracellular diffusion barrier through a network of lignified cell walls called Casparian strips, supported by subsequent ...

Significance Endodermal suberin plays crucial roles in plant nutrition by forming barriers for the free diffusion of water and nutrients. Suberin formation is tightly regulated by exogenous and developmental cues, which independently control suberin ...

Suberin goes genomics: Use of a short living plant to investigate a long lasting polymer
Suberin is a highly persistent cell wall polymer, predominantly composed of long-chain hydroxylated fatty acids. Apoplastic suberin depositions occur in internal and peripheral dermal tissues where they generate lipophilic barriers preventing ...

Mutations in UDP-Glucose:Sterol Glucosyltransferase in Arabidopsis Cause Transparent Testa Phenotype and Suberization Defect in Seeds [PDF]
In higher plants, the most abundant sterol derivatives are steryl glycosides (SGs) and acyl SGs. Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) contains two genes, UGT80A2 and UGT80B1, that encode UDP-Glc:sterol glycosyltransferases, enzymes that catalyze the ...
