Suberin is a biopolymer found in the cell wall and which contains in the structure phenolics, glycerol and lipids. Due to its insolubility and impermeability is an important barrier to the transport of water, ions and gaseous compounds in plant tissues where it is found, such as the endoderm, the periderm and vascular sheath of C4 plants. In Saccharum spp., the cell wall of stem cells and…
