The dynamic changes of mango (Mangifera indica L.) epicuticular wax during fruit development and effect of epicuticular wax on Colletotrichum gloeosporioides invasion [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Mango fruits are susceptible to diseases, such as anthracnose, during fruit development, leading to yield reduction. Epicuticular wax is closely related to resistance of plants to pathogenic bacterial invasion.

Composition and Variability of Epicuticular Waxes in Apple Cultivars [PDF]
Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 1998 Variation in amount and composition of epicuticular wax among several apple ( Malus ×domestica Borkh.) cultivars was characterized by gas chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, and gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy. Across cultivars, wax mass ranged from 366 to 1038 μg·cm

Epicuticular Wax Morphology and Composition are Related to Grapefruit Chilling Injury [PDF]
HortScience, 1993 Differences in chilling injury (CI) susceptibility between `Marsh' grapefruit (Citrus paradisi Macf.) from interior and exterior tree canopy positions were analyzed to investigate the hypothesis that epicuticular wax morphology and composition influence CI development during low-temperature storage.

Epicuticular Wax Compositions of Predominant Conifers of Western North America [PDF]
Zeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 1999 The compositions of epicuticular waxes from conifers constituting the predom inant species of western North America were determined by GC and GC-MS. The primary components identified include alkanes, fatty acids, fatty alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, phytosterols, triterpenoids and wax esters.

Epicuticular Leaf Waxes of the Hop (Humulus lupulus). Chemical Composition and Surface Structures [PDF]
Zeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 1993 Abstract The epicuticular wax layer of Humulus lupulus contains homologous series of hydrocarbons, wax esters, benzylacyl esters, aldehydes, primary alcohols, fatty acids and the triterpenoids β-amyrin, α-amyrin both free and esterified with long chain fatty acids and also friedelanone.

Composition of the Epicuticular Wax Esters of Picea abies (L.) Karst [PDF]
Zeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 1995 Abstract The long-chain alkyl esters homologues of the cuticular needle wax of Picea abies consist of a series of isomers, which are formed by different n-fatty acids and n-alkanols of various chain lengths. Even-numbered esters are dominating.

Composition of epicuticular waxes on barley spikes [PDF]
Carlsberg Research Communications, 1976 Hydrocarbons, alkan-1-ol and alkan-2-ol containing esters, β-diketones, aldehydes, primary alcohols, hydroxy-β-diketones, free fatty acids and sometimes secondary alcohols are major lipid classes of epicuticular waxes on the spikes of the three wild type barley varieties Bonus, Foma and Carlsberg-II and many of the 40eceriferum (cer) mutants examined ...

Equisetum species show uniform epicuticular wax structures but diverse composition patterns [PDF]
AoB PLANTS, 2011 Only few data on the epicuticular waxes (EWs) of horsetails are available. This contribution therefore focuses on the wax micromorphology and chemical composition of Equisetum species of the subgenera Equisetum and Hippochaete.Distribution patterns and structural details of EW on the shoots were studied by scanning electron microscopy. After extraction

Epicuticular Wax Crystals of Wollemia nobilis: Morphology and Chemical Composition [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2007 The morphology of the epicuticular leaf waxes of Wollemia nobilis (Araucariaceae) was studied with special emphasis on the relationship between the microstructure of epicuticular wax crystals and their chemical composition. Wollemia nobilis is a unique coniferous tree of the family Araucariaceae and is of very high scientific value as it is the sole ...
