Oil adsorption ability of three-dimensional epicuticular wax coverages in plants. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2017 Primary aerial surfaces of terrestrial plants are very often covered with three-dimensional epicuticular waxes. Such wax coverages play an important role in insect-plant interactions. Wax blooms have been experimentally shown in numerous previous studies

Aphid responses to non-host epicuticular lipids
, 1999 Initiation of stylet penetration by aphids depends on the sensory assessment of a number of plant surface features including colour, texture and phytochemicals (volatile and non-volatile).

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Green raisin production is limited by rapid chlorophyll degradation during drying. This study evaluated copper metallo‐complex formation to stabilize green pigmentation in Vitis vinifera cv. Thompson Seedless grapes. Pretreatments with copper sulfate (CuSO4) pentahydrate (2%–6% w/v) were applied via dipping and vacuum impregnation (2–10 min ...

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Phenotypic plasticity can facilitate species survival in a variety of conditions that are not possible with a fixed phenotype. Foliar water uptake (FWU), defined as the absorption of water through leaf surfaces, is an important mechanism contributing to plant water balance and drought tolerance in many species.

Effects of bioinsecticide exposure route on aphids and their natural enemies in oilseed rape
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Fatty acids, silicone polymers and surfactants reduced aphid numbers but caused natural enemy mortality under direct exposure, while minimal residual activity suggests potential for targeted, compatible use in integrated pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Myzus persicae Sulzer and Brevicoryne brassicae L.

Evaluation of Epicuticular Wax Removal from Whole Leaves with Chloroform
, 1993 Leaves of torpedograss and American black nightshade were extracted with chloroform at room temperature. A 2-s dip was sufficient to remove most of the epicuticular wax from torpedograss.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is a major pest of winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus). We tested B. napus and Sinapis alba seedlings for feeding resistance and underlying chemical defenses. S. alba was least damaged, while metabolite profiles revealed resistance‐linked compounds, highlighting breeding potential for insect ...
