Composite cuticle with heterogeneous layers in the leaf epidermis of Ficus elastica

Two distinct layers in terms of texture and electron density were observed in the leaf cuticle of Ficus elastica using transmission electron microscopy. As depicted in a model, an inner polysaccharide-rich layer and an outer cutin (or cutan)-rich layer may support the composite, heterogeneous concep...
