Sphingolipids, which comprise membrane systems together with other lipids, are ubiquitous
in cellular organisms. They show a high degree of diversity across plant species and vary in …

Sphingolipids are essential metabolites found in all plant species. They are required for
plasma membrane integrity, tolerance of and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses, and …

In plants, many invading microbial pathogens are recognized by cell-surface pattern
recognition receptors, which induce defense responses. Here, we show that the ceramide …

Lipid droplets (LDs) of seed tissues are storage organelles for triacylglycerols (TAGs) that
provide the energy and carbon for seedling establishment. In the major route of LD …

Sphingolipids are fundamental lipids involved in various cellular, developmental and stress‐
response processes. As such, they orchestrate not only vital molecular mechanisms of living …

Fumonisin toxins are produced by Fusarium fungal pathogens. Fumonisins are structural
analogs of sphingosine and potent inhibitors of ceramide synthases (CerSs); they disrupt …

Plant sphingolipids mostly possess 2-hydroxy fatty acids (HFA), the synthesis of which is
catalyzed by FA 2-hydroxylases (FAHs). In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), two FAHs …

Sphingolipids have key functions in plant membrane structure and signaling. Perturbations
of plant sphingolipid metabolism often induce cell death and salicylic acid (SA) …

Inositolphosphorylceramide synthase (IPCS) catalyses ceramides and phosphatidylinositol
(PI) into inositolphosphorylceramide (IPC), which is involved in the regulation of plant growth …

Cotton fiber is an extremely elongated single cell derived from the ovule epidermis and is an
ideal model for studying cell development. The plasma membrane is tremendously …
