The plant cuticle is a multilayered structure composed of cutin, cutin-linked polysaccharides and diverse waxes. It covers aerial plant tissues to prevent water loss and pathogen invasion, and modulates key crop quality traits. Despite substantial progress in research on cuticle formation, its molecular regulatory me...

expression analysis revealed that WRKY-S is highly expressed during early fruit stages, and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knockout of WRKY-S produced rounded fruits with reduced cell number along the proximal-distal axis, while overexpression resulted in irregular fruit shapes.
