The FUSED LEAVES1/ADHERENT1 Regulatory Module Is Required For Maize Cuticle Development And Organ Separation

X. Liu, R. Bourgault, J. Strable, M. Galli, Z. Chen, J. Dong, I. Molina, A. Gallavotti

The study identifies AD1, a 3-KETOACYL-CoA SYNTHASE gene regulated by FUSED LEAVES1, as essential for cuticle formation and organ separation in maize.

Structure-function analysis of the maize bulliform cell cuticle and its role in dehydration and leaf rolling

S. Matschi, M. F. Vasquez, R. Bourgault, P. Steinbach, J. Chamness, N. Kaczmar, M. A. Gore, I. Molina, L. G. Smith

The study identifies a specialized cuticle in maize bulliform cells that facilitates leaf rolling during dehydration by increasing water loss compared to other epidermal cell types.

Changes in lipid composition and ultrastructure associated with functional maturation of the cuticle during adult maize leaf development

R. Bourgault, S. Matschi, M. Vasquez, P. Qiao, A. Sonntag, C. Charlebois, M. Mohammadi, M. J. Scanlon, L. G. Smith, I. Molina

The paper examines cuticle composition, ultrastructure, and permeability in adult maize leaves during development, revealing roles for wax esters and an osmiophilic layer in dehydration protection.
