Wax biosynthesis upon danger: its regulation upon abiotic and biotic stress.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
The plant cuticle is the first physical barrier between land plants and their terrestrial environment. It consists of the polyester cutin that is imbedded and sealed with organic, solvent-extractable cuticular waxes.
