Chemical Composition and Morphology of Epicuticular Waxes from Leaves of Solanum tuberosum [PDF]

Zeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 1987
The chemical com position and morphology of leaf surface waxes of Solanum tuberosum were analysed using FT - IR . GLC and MS studies. There is a predominance of saturated and long chained components resulting in a crystalline wax layer in the form of ribbons, n-alkanes are a major constituent with C31 being p rominent.

Drought induced metabolic shifts and water loss mechanisms in canola: role of cysteine, phenylalanine and aspartic acid [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Drought conditions severely curtail the ability of plants to accumulate biomass due to the closure of stomata and the decrease of photosynthetic assimilation rate. Additionally, there is a shift in the plant’s metabolic processes toward the production of

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.

A high-recovery, high-density targeted genotyping platform for cranberry. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract The American cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) is a commercially important berry species native to North America. Cranberry is a popular fruit crop with many known health benefits. Thus far, genotyping‐by‐sequencing (GBS) was the only high‐throughput genotyping technique available in cranberry.

A viscoelastic deadly fluid in carnivorous pitcher plants [PDF]

, 2007
Background : The carnivorous plants of the genus Nepenthes, widely distributed in the Asian tropics, rely mostly on nutrients derived from arthropods trapped in their pitcher-shaped leaves and digested by their enzymatic fluid. The genus exhibits a great

Resistance mechanisms in collard green genotypes to Plutella xylostella: role of physical and morphological traits. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
Resistance to Plutella xylostella in collard greens is mediated by antixenosis and antibiosis, associated with traits such as leaf wax, hardness, and color. Genotypes showed strong resistance potential, supporting their use in breeding and integrated pest management strategies. Abstract BACKGROUND The diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera:
