Surface lipids and plant defenses.

Plant physiology and biochemistry : PPB - 1 Jun 2009

Reina-Pinto José J, Yephremov Alexander

Abstract excerpt

The major function of the plant epidermis is to form the cuticle, a functional permeability barrier of the cell wall which prevents excessive water loss and the entry of harmful substances and pathogens into the host. This type of cell wall modification is mainly composed of a polyester matrix, cutin, and soluble waxes embedded in the matrix and deposited on the external surface. Cuticle-associated proteins may...
