Transcription Factor TaMYB30 Activates Wheat Wax Biosynthesis [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 The waxy cuticle covers a plant’s aerial surface and contributes to environmental adaptation in land plants. Although past decades have seen great advances in understanding wax biosynthesis in model plants, the mechanisms underlying wax biosynthesis in crop plants such as bread wheat remain to be elucidated.
