Annual Plant Reviews, Volume 23A much clearer picture is now emerging of the fine structure of the plant cuticle and its surface, the composition of cuticular waxes and the biosynthetic pathways leading to them. Studies assessing the impact of UV radiation on plant life have emphasized the role of the cuticle and underlying epidermis as optical filters for solar radiation. The field concerned with the diffusive transport of lipophilic organic non-electrolytes across the plant cuticle has reached a state of maturity. A new paradigm has recently been proposed for the diffusion of polar compounds and water across the cuticle. In the context of plant ecophysiology, cuticular transpiration can now be placed in the perspective of whole-leaf water relations. New and unexpected roles have been assigned to the cuticle in plant development and pollen-stigma interactions. Finally, much progress has been made in understanding the cuticle as a specific and extraordinary substrate for the interactions of the plant with microorganisms, fungi and insects. This volume details the major developments of recent years in this important interdisciplinary area. It is directed at researchers and professionals in plant biochemistry, plant physiology, plant ecology, phytopathology and environmental microbiology, in both the academic and industrial sectors.

Frauen gründen seltener. Das ist ein vielfach belegter Fakt. Die subjektive Wahrnehmung der Autorin sieht jedoch ganz anders aus: Seit ihrer eigenen Gründung 2019 ist sie umgeben von Frauen, die sich erfolgreich selbstständig machen. Da sie aber nicht zu den wenigen Unternehmerinnen gehören, die regelmäßig in der Presse erwähnt werden, sind sie außerhalb dieser Bubble kaum sichtbar. Das führt zu einer verzerrten Darstellung und dazu, dass noch weniger Frauen eine Gründung in Erwägung ziehen. Denn es fehlen die Vorbilder, die zeigen, was möglich ist.28 erfolgreiche Selbstständige und Unternehmerinnen werden in diesem Buch vorgestellt: Sie gründeten in den verschiedensten Branchen, aus den unterschiedlichsten Motivationen und Lebenssituationen heraus. Leser:innen erhalten einen echten Einblick in die persönlichen Geschichten, Herausforderungen und Erfolge der Unternehmerinnen und Selbstständigen. Zudem beinhaltet das Buch viele wertvolle Tipps für alle, die selbst ein Unternehmen gründen wollen oder sich bereits selbstständig gemacht haben.
