Do the edge effects influence epicuticular wax production in Vismia guianensis (Aubl.) Choisy (Hypericaceae)?

Revista Verde de Agroecologia e Desenvolvimento Sustentável, 2023
Forest fragmentation leads to various environmental problems. It causes edge effects that can decrease biodiversity, promote the growth of lianas, and affect the production of epicuticular wax.

Developing Hydrophobic Paper as a Packaging Material Using Epicuticular Wax: A Sustainable Approach

BioResources, 2014
There is an urgent need for a biodegradable, hydrophobic material that can be used in developing packaging materials. In this preliminary study, epicuticular wax has been extracted from the leaves of Calotropis procera and Alstonia scholaris using ...

Developmental pattern of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) berry cuticular wax: Differentiation between epicuticular crystals and underlying wax.

PLoS ONE, 2021
The grapevine berry surface is covered by a cuticle consisting of cutin and various lipophilic wax compounds. The latter build the main barrier for transpirational water loss and protect the fruit against environmental factors e.g.

Wheat Leaves: The Surface Disposition of Their Epicuticular Wax [PDF]

, 2013
This research work describes the micro-nano-patterning of the epicuticular wax of wheat leaf surface (adaxial side), by analyzing their RIMAPS spectra. It is known that the epicuticular wax of the wheat leaf has a platelet shape.

Cuticular wax composition of mature leaves of species and hybrids of the genus Prunus differing in resistance to clasterosporium disease

Biosystems Diversity, 2020
The interaction of a host plant with pathogen implies an extremely complex process involving the outer waxy layer of the cuticle, cutin, cell membrane, and intracellular structures. However, the initial contact between plants and pathogens takes place in
