Abstract:IntroductionThe cuticle wax covering the plant surface is a whitish hydrophobic protective barrier in Chinese cabbage, and the epicuticular wax crystal deficiency normally has higher commodity value for a tender texture and glossy appearance. Herein, two allelic epicuticular wax crystal deficiency mutants, wdm1 and wdm7, were obtained from the EMS mutagenesis population of a Chinese cabbage DH line ‘FT’.MethodsThe cuticle wax morphology was observed by Cryo-scanning electron microscopy (Cryo-SEM) and the compo… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
