The epigenetic landscape of plant defense: Unlocking nature's toolkit for new plant protection
New Plant Protection, EarlyView.This review examines how epigenetic mechanisms regulate plant immune gene activation, repression, and priming, then links these natural regulatory layers to emerging epigenetic editing, discussing their potential for precise, heritable crop protection and the challenges.

Wax Esters: Chemistry and Biosynthesis
, 2014 Wax esters are unique surface lipids found on the surface of terrestrial organisms. After a brief review of the composition, the mechanisms used in their biosynthesis by sebaceous glands are summarized. The molecular biology of biosynthesis of methyl-branched, short chain and very long chain acids, and the biochemical mechanism of the loss of the ...

Biosynthesis and secretion of plant cuticular wax
Progress in Lipid Research, 2003The cuticle covers the aerial portions of land plants. It consists of amorphous intracuticular wax embedded in cutin polymer, and epicuticular wax crystalloids that coat the outer plant surface and impart a whitish appearance. Cuticular wax is mainly composed of long-chain aliphatic compounds derived from very long chain fatty acids.

Wax ester biosynthesis in the liver of myctophid fishes
Lipids, 2001AbstractThe biosynthetic properties of wax esters in the liver were compared between two types of myctophid fishes having different body lipid composition, i.e., three triglyceriderich species (Lampanyctus jordani, Diaphus theta, and Symbolophorus californiensis) and three was ester‐rich species (L.

AbstractThe following enzyme activities were demonstrated in cell‐free homogenates from developing jojoba cotyledons: 1) elongation of long chain acyl‐CoAs in the presence of malonyl‐CoA and NADPH (or NADH), 2) NADPH‐dependent reduction of long chain acyl‐CoAs to the corresponding alcohols, 3) esterification of long chain acyl‐CoAs and the alcohols ...

Biosynthesis of wax esters in oceanic crustaceans
Marine Biology, 1978Slices from the hepatopancreas of various oceanic curstaceans incorporated radioactivity into wax esters from 14C glucose and 14C aspartic acid to a lesser extent and from 14C palmitic acid to a much greater extent. Radioactivity was incorporated from 14C palmitic acid into both fatty acid and fatty alcohol moieties of wax esters, the percentage of ...

Molecular genetics of epicuticular wax biosynthesis
Trends in Plant Science, 1996The epicuticular wax (EW) layer that coats the outer surface of plants is composed of a variety of long chain length hydrocarbons. Genetic studies indicate that a very large number of genes are involved in wax production. However, the pathway(s) by which the waxes are synthesized and deposited onto the plant surface remain elusive.

n-Alkanes, esters, aldehydes, free alcohols, β-diketones and hydroxy-β-diketones were found to be the lipid components of the cuticular waxes of common wheat Chinese Spring (Triticum aestivum L.). The ditelosomic lines 7A-L and 7D-S showed a dramatic decrease in the amount of β-diketones and hydroxy β-diketones which are reduced to traces.
