Abstract excerpt
MAIN CONCLUSION: We identified tomato leaf cuticle and root suberin monomers that play a role in the response to nitrogen deficiency and salinity stress and discuss their potential agronomic value for breeding. The plant cuticle plays a key role in plant-water relations, and cuticle's agronomic value in plant breeding programs is currently under investigation. In this study, the tomato cutin mutant cd1, with...
