Composition and structure of maize epicuticular wax esters

Phytochemistry, 1989
Abstract The structural composition is reported of epicuticular wax esters from maize. The waxes from wild type ( Gl ) plants at different stages of growth and those from some glossy ( gl ) seedlings and an albino strain of maize have been analysed for their content of esters. Influence of age and mutations on the epicuticular wax ester composition

Composition of Epicuticular Wax on Opuntia engelmannii

Botanical Gazette, 1990
Alkanes and esthers contributed up to 97% of the total epicuticular wax on cladophylls of glasshouse-grown Texas pricklypear cactus (Opuntia engelmannii var. texana [Gr.] Weniger). Alkane content increased with cladophyll age. Ester content decreased from 56% on buds to 17% on older cladophylls.

Composition of Epicuticular Wax on Prosopis glandulosa Leaves

Botanical Gazette, 1990
Epicuticular wax on leaves of field-grown honey mesquite (Prosopis glandulosa Torr.) trees consisted of 35% esters, 32% alkanes, 25% free fatty alcohols, and 7% free fatty acids. Aldehydes were present in very low concentrations. The number of carbon atoms (Cn) of alkanes ranged from 25 to 31, with a maximum (57%) at 29. Esters consisted of fatty acids
