Environment-Driven Adaptations of Leaf Cuticular Waxes Are Inheritable for Medicago ruthenica

Cuticular waxes covering the plant surface play pivotal roles in helping plants adapt to changing environments. However, it is still not clear whether the responses of plant cuticular waxes to their growing environments are inheritable. We collected seeds of Medicago ruthenica (a perennial legume) p...
