The impact of drought on wheat leaf cuticle properties [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: The plant cuticle is the outermost layer covering aerial tissues and is composed of cutin and waxes. The cuticle plays an important role in protection from environmental stresses and glaucousness, the bluish-white colouration of plant ...

Wettability and morphology of the leaf surface in cashew tree from the Amazon, Northern Brazil
Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2016 Leaves surfaces, which represent an interface with plants and the environment, have several structures with specific functions. Some foliar properties, including wettability and mechanical containment, are inferred in terms of cellular adaptation and the

Molecular study of lipids in humic acids by sequential chemical degradation [PDF]
, 2009 Lipidy v půdě vykazují poměrně vysokou resistenci k biodegradaci, mohou proto tak zajistit informace o zdrojích organické hmoty a diagenetických procesech. Půdní organická hmota je vysoce heterogenní a vyskytují se v ní různé dynamické systémy.
