Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics
Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

This study investigated the influence of Cd (25 µM) on Zn accumulation in a hyperaccumulating (HE) and a non-hyperaccumulating (NHE) ecotype of Sedum alfredii Hance at short-term supply of replete (Zn5, 5 µM) and excess (Zn400, 400 µM) Zn.

Deciphering the Sodium Sensing Mechanisms in Glycophytes and Halophytes
ABSTRACT Plants, including halophytes (salt‐tolerant) and glycophytes (salt‐sensitive), have developed diverse molecular mechanisms and morphological adaptations to survive in saline environments. The cellular components and molecular processes for salinity sensing and stress tolerance have been extensively identified in glycophytes, but not so with ...

Exodermal Function and Suberin Chemistry [PDF]
The thesis work concerns the multiseriate exodermis (MEX), an outermost cortical layer (two or more cell layers thick) characterized by Casparian bands and suberin lamellae.

Cork suberin as an additive in offset lithographic printing inks [PDF]
Suberin oligomers, isolated from cork (Quercus suber L.), were used as additives in ‘Waterless’ and vegetable-oil ink formulations, in the range of 2–10% w/w.

Coordination of cortex modifications in time, space, and under stress
Summary In roots, cell‐type‐specific differentiation enables specialized responses to environmental stress. The cortex, located between the vasculature and epidermis, is a key site for stress‐responsive modifications. The distinct specializations of the cortex are controlled by developmental, positional and environmental signals.

A family of closely related land plant-specific glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferases (GPATs) play a key role in the precursor synthesis of cutin and suberin strengthening the diffusion barrier properties of cell walls in specific cell types.

Applying two-photon excitation fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy to study photosynthesis in plant leaves [PDF]
This study investigates to which extent two-photon excitation (TPE) fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy can be applied to study picosecond fluorescence kinetics of individual chloroplasts in leaves.

Distribution of cutin and suberin biomarkers under forest trees with different root systems [PDF]
Background and aims Differences in chemical composition of root compounds and root systems among tree species may affect organic matter (OM) distribution, source and composition in forest soils.
