Morphofunctional characteristics of leaves and fruits in Maloideae (Rosaceae): a. Microstructure of surface tissues by T. Kh. Kumachova, A. S. Voronkov, A. V. Babosha, A. S. Ryabchenko

“…The formation of cover tissues (epidermis, cork), providing a connection with the environment, in the evolution of flowering plants was one of the main consequences of the transition to life on earth. The epidermis, which emerged as a device for protecting deeper underlying tissues from drying, subsequently acquired additional functions (participation in gas exchange and transpiration, absorption and isolation of certain substances as well as protection from the penetration of pathogens) and became a multifunctional tissue consisting of several types of cells (basic, stomatal, and trichomes). …”
