Reaction of Coniferous Forest Vegetation to Particulate Deposition Under Alkaline Pressure [PDF]
, 2011 The aim of this study was to determine direction, rate and character of the changes in coniferous forest communities caused by anthropogenic stress factors (alkaline emission and imission) changing with time.

Increased cuticular wax deposition does not change residual foliar transpiration [PDF]
Plant, Cell & Environment, 2022 AbstractThe effect of contrasting environmental growth conditions (in vitro tissue culture, ex vitro acclimatisation, climate chamber, greenhouse and outdoor) on leaf development, cuticular wax composition, and foliar transpiration of detached leaves of the Populus × canescens clone 84 K were investigated.

Regulation of tomato fruit ripening [PDF]
, 2009 Fruit ripening is a sophisticatedly orchestrated developmental process, unique to plants, that results in major physiological and metabolic changes, ultimately leading to fruit decay and seed dispersal.

Cuticular wax composition of ‘Celeste’ and ‘Somerset’ cherry fruit [PDF]
Acta Horticulturae, 2017 The cuticular layer plays an important role in protecting fruits against water loss and invasive microorganisms and insects, both during on-tree development and postharvest storage. There is also experimental evidence that cuticle composition and structure may be a relevant factor accounting for firmness and other textural attributes.

CYP52X1, representing new cytochrome P450 subfamily, displays fatty acid hydroxylase activity and contributes to virulence and growth on insect cuticular substrates in entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana [PDF]
, 2012 Infection of insects by the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana proceeds via attachment and penetration of the host cuticle. The outermost epicuticular layer or waxy layer of the insect represents a structure rich in lipids including abundant ...

Horticultural Plant Journal, 2022 Postharvest water loss is a critical factor that determines the quality and shelf life of fresh fruit. Cuticular wax constitutes a key barrier to reduce fruit water loss. Our previous study has shown that HJ (Citrus reticulata) has a significantly higher

Chemical composition and water permeability of fruit and leaf cuticles of Olea europaea L. [PDF]
, 2017 The plant cuticle, protecting against uncontrolled water loss, covers olive (Olea europaea) fruits and leaves. The present study describes the organ-specific chemical composition of the cuticular waxes and the cutin and compares three developmental ...

Cholesterol in the Cuticular Wax of Boophilus microplus [PDF]
Nature, 1969 TRACES of substances giving colour reactions typical of sterols have been found in the cuticle and cuticular wax of several arthropods1–6, but they have not been reported from ticks7,8. I have now shown that both free and esterified cholesterol occur in the wax of Boophilus microplus, and I have measured the quantity of each present.
