Plant lipid trafficking : the cell biology of cuticular lipid export and membrane contact sites of Arabidopsis thaliana

The plant cuticle coats the primary aerial tissues of all land plants to provide protection against non-­‐stomatal water loss. Though the biosynthesis of cuticular lipids is now relatively well understood, the mechanisms of cuticular lipid export remain unclear. The objective of this thesis was to c...
