Theplantcuticle

Hi! I am the plant cuticle, i.e. the outermost waxy membrane that covers the epidermis of non-lignified plant organs.

Plants don’t just take up water through their #roots. 💧

This research looks at the contributions of the #stomata and cuticle, water as a liquid or vapour, and implications for productivity and survival.

@KanadeTatsumi What a amazing topic! I hope to see your research soon!

Good luck! 💪
