Chemical composition and water permeability of fruit and leaf cuticles of Olea europaea L. [PDF]
, 2017 The plant cuticle, protecting against uncontrolled water loss, covers olive (Olea europaea) fruits and leaves. The present study describes the organ-specific chemical composition of the cuticular waxes and the cutin and compares three developmental ...

Anti-botrytis activity in epicuticular waxes of young grape berries of Vitis vinifera (Pinot noir)
OENO One, 1996 The susceptibility of the grape berries against Botrytis cinerea was known as a relation with their phenological state : young grapes are resistant while mature grapes are highly sensible.

Bio‐Based Wax Interfaces for Droplet Energy Harvesting at Fluoropolymer‐Like Output Levels
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Replacing unsustainable fluorinated polymers in droplet‐based energy harvesters is usually limited by low power outputs, but carefully selected bio‐based polymers are capable of creating fluoropolymer‐like voltage outputs. Abstract Droplet impact and rebound on solid surfaces has emerged as a promising method for energy harvesting, typically ...

Factors affecting rind pitting in the mandarin hybrids "fortune" and "nova". The influence of exogenous growth regulators [PDF]
, 1995 The commercialization of the mandarin hybrids "Fortune" and "Nova" is hindered by the development of cold-induced pitting in the fruit rind which may develop either in the orchard or during storage and transport. In the late cropping cultivar "Fortune",

Micromorpho‐anatomical studies on the leaves and woods of Turkish Daphne (Thymelaeaceae) taxa
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.The identification of Daphne taxa is difficult because of the lack of available morphological characteristics. Here, we aimed to describe leaf and wood micromorpho‐anatomical characteristics of native Turkish Daphne taxa (D. glomerata, D. gnidioides, D. mezereum, D. mucronata, D. oleoides subsp. kurdica, D. pontica and D.
