Epidermal waxes are part of the outermost hydrophobic structures of apples and play a
significant role in enhancing apple resistance and improving fruit quality. The biosynthetic …

Apple cuticular wax can protect plants from environmental stress, determine fruit luster and
improve postharvest fruit storage quality. In recent years, dry weather, soil salinization and …

Long-chain acyl-CoA synthetases (LACSs) are members of the acyl-activating enzyme
superfamily that have important roles in lipid synthesis and storage, fatty acid catabolism …

The aerial parts of apple are protected against environmental stress by cuticular wax.
Although it has been suggested that several long-chain acyl-CoA synthetases are involved …

Apple fruit is covered by cuticle wax, which plays important roles protecting fruits from
adverse environmental conditions. β-Ketoacyl-CoA synthase (KCS) is the key rate-limiting …

Key message We found that the apple wax related gene played a role in changing plant
epidermal permeability and enhancing plant resistance to drought stress by increasing wax …

Long-chain acyl-CoA synthetases (LACSs), belonging to the acyl-activating enzyme
superfamily, play crucial roles in lipid biosynthesis and fatty acid catabolism. Here, we …

The membrane-anchored Arabidopsis thaliana ACYL-COA-BINDING PROTEIN1 (AtACBP1)
plays important roles in embryogenesis and abiotic stress responses, and interacts with long …

Cuticular wax, forming the first line of defense against adverse environmental stresses,
comprises very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) and their derivatives. 3-Ketoacyl-CoA …

Apple epidermal wax protects plants from environmental stresses, determines fruit gloss and
improves postharvest storage quality. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the …
