Water Sorption and Desorption of Isolated Cuticles From Three Woody Species With Focus on Ilex aquifolium

Water Sorption and Desorption of Isolated Cuticles From Three Woody Species With Focus on Ilex aquifolium

The cuticle is a lipid-rich layer that protects aerial plant organs against multiple stress factors such as dehydration. In this study, cuticle composition and structure in relation to water loss are examined in a broad ecophysiological context, taking into consideration leaf age and side from Ilex...
