Molecular genetics of epicuticular wax biosynthesis
Trends in Plant Science, 1996The epicuticular wax (EW) layer that coats the outer surface of plants is composed of a variety of long chain length hydrocarbons. Genetic studies indicate that a very large number of genes are involved in wax production. However, the pathway(s) by which the waxes are synthesized and deposited onto the plant surface remain elusive.

Alkane distribution in epicuticular wax of epacridaceae
Phytochemistry, 1983Abstract Alkane distribution pattern was determined in the epicuticular wax of leaves of 39 species and in the flower wax of three species of Epacridaceae. Uniform patterns were observed within some genera ( Monotoca, Styphelia ) whereas in others no common pattern was apparent.

Leaf epicuticular waxes in the taxonomy of the Epacridaceae
1989Leaf epicuticular waxes have been studied in the plant family Epacridaceae from a primarily taxonomic aspect. Both the form of the wax and its chemical composition have been analysed. Wax morphology in approximately 95% of the known species from 30 of the 31 recorded genera has been examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Epicuticular wax of Agropyron smithii leaves
Phytochemistry, 1976Abstract Wax on the leaves of Agropyron smithii contains hydrocarbons (3%, C 27 –C 33 ), esters (4%, C 26 –C 56 ), free acids (5%, C 14 –C 36 ), hentriacontane-14,16-dione (17%), 25-oxohentriacontane-14,16-dione (3%), 25-hydroxyhen-triacontane-14,16-dione (30%), 26-hydroxyhentriacontane-14,16-dione (18%) and unidentified material (20%).
