Root suberin forms an extracellular barrier that affects water relations and mineral nutrition in Arabidopsis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2009
Though central to our understanding of how roots perform their vital function of scavenging water and solutes from the soil, no direct genetic evidence currently exists to support the foundational model that suberin acts to form a chemical barrier ...

Regulation of FATTY ACID ELONGATION1 expression in embryonic and vascular tissues of Brassica napus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
International audienceThe expression of the FATTY ACID ELONGATION1 genes was characterised to provide insight into the regulation of very long chain fatty acid (VLCFA) biosynthesis in Brassica napus embryos.

Investigating Aspergillus nidulans secretome during colonisation of cork cell walls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cork, the outer bark of Quercus suber, shows a unique compositional structure, a set of remarkable properties, including high recalcitrance. Cork colonisation by Ascomycota remains largely overlooked.

Chemical and Molecular Characterization of Wound-Induced Suberization in Poplar (Populus alba × P. tremula) Stem Bark

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Upon mechanical damage, plants produce wound responses to protect internal tissues from infections and desiccation. Suberin, a heteropolymer found on the inner face of primary cell walls, is deposited in specific tissues under normal development ...

The MYB36 transcription factor orchestrates Casparian strip formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The endodermis in roots acts as a selectivity filter for nutrient and water transport essential for growth and development. This selectivity is enabled by the formation of lignin-based Casparian strips.

Sodium silicate promotes wound healing by inducing the deposition of suberin polyphenolic and lignin in potato tubers

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Wound healing is a postharvest characteristic of potato tubers through accumulating suberin and lignin, which could reduce decay and water loss during storage.

Binding interactions between suberin monomer components and pesticides [PDF]

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2015
Understanding the role of biomacromolecules and their interactions with pollutants is a key for elucidating the sorption mechanisms and making an accurate assessment of the environmental fate of pollutants. The knowledge of the sorption properties of the different constituents of these biomacromolecules may furnish a significant contribution to this ...

Altered Metabolism in Knockdown Lines of Two HXXXD/BAHD Acyltransferases During Wound Healing in Potato Tubers

open access: yesPlants
Suberin biosynthesis involves the coordinated regulation of both phenolic and aliphatic metabolisms. HXXXD/BAHD acyltransferases occupy a unique place in suberization, as they function to crosslink phenolic and aliphatic monomers during suberin assembly.
