Effect of Drought Stress on Epicuticular Wax Load in Peanut Genotypes [PDF]
, 2015 The changes in epicuticular wax load (EWL) and the leaf temperature in two peanut genotypes such as JL-24 (drought susceptible) and K-9 (drought tolerant) was studied under drought stress and its recovery. The drought stress was induced at different soil

371 TRITERPENES IN GRAPEFRUIT EPICUTICULAR WAX [PDF]
HortScience, 1994 The purpose of this study was to identify compounds in the wax of fruit obtained from different canopy positions for possible relationships to chilling injury development. Both exterior and interior canopy grapefruit wax extracts were separated by thin layer chromatography into four lipid classes: alkanes, aldehydes, linear alcohols and triterpenes ...

The influence of surface energy on the self-cleaning of insect adhesive devices [PDF]
, 2012 The ability of insects to adhere to surfaces is facilitated by the use of adhesive organs found on the terminal leg segments. These adhesive pads are inherently 'tacky' and are expected to be subject to contamination by particulates, leading to loss of ...

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 ...
