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.

Leaf Epicuticular Wax Chemical Composition of Morettia phillaeana (Del.) DC. From Sudan

Omdurman Islamic University Journal, 2022
      Morettia phillaeana was analyzed for its chemical composition of surface epicuticular wax. The constituents were extracted from the leaves by using n-hexane solvent, and were identified by using Gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC/MS). The major components were hydrocarbons (74.15%), fatty acids, methyl ester (15.73%). and phytosterol (5.47%)

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 ...
