Changes in cuticle compositions and crystal structure of ‘Bingtang’ sweet orange fruits (Citrus sinensis) during storage

open access: yesInternational Journal of Food Properties, 2018
Changes in composition and structure of orange cuticle during storage at 4°C or 25°C for 40 days were investigated. The total epicuticular wax content of fruits increased during storage at 4°C for 30 days and then decreased as storage time prolonged to ...

Geochemical and Seismic Constraints on the Role of Mud Diapirs in Petroleum Migration and Accumulation in the Recôncavo Basin, NE Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the Recôncavo Basin, Northeast of Brazil, mud diapirs have been reported for decades, but their role within the basin's petroleum system remains poorly constrained. Here, we combine 2D seismic interpretation, field observations, and organic geochemical analyses of rocks and oil seeps to investigate the relationship between diapirism and ...

Wettability and interception in relationship with the seasonal changes on the Fagus sylvatica leaf surface

open access: yesLeśne Prace Badawcze, 2017
Interception is the amount of water held on the canopy at the end of a rainfall event. Rainfall interception and contact angle of raindrops on the surface of plants has a significant meaning in ecohydrology.

Quiescence of postharvest pathogens: a fungal inhibition process or an immune response of the unripe host fruit?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Postharvest pathogens can infect fresh produce both before and after harvest, by direct or wound‐enhanced penetration, remaining quiescent until ripening. Biotrophic‐like postharvest pathogens persist beneath host cells and can remain in a state of quiescence.

Wax Lipids from Leaf Surfaces of Some Common plants of Malaysia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Epicuticular wax lipids from leaves of some common plant species found in the Klang Valley, Malaysia were extracted into dichloromethane for analysis. Extracts were separated into hydrocarbon, carboxylic acid, ketone and alcohol fractions. The fractions

Loss‐of‐Function Mutation in CER2‐LIKE1 Reduced Accumulation of Cuticular Wax and Susceptibility to Thrips in Welsh Onion

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes can form a hydrophobic barrier on aerial plant surfaces, which is essential for mediating plant‐environment interactions by providing protection against both biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study, a cuticular wax mutant (gl) was identified and characterised in Welsh onion (Allium fistulosum L.), exhibiting a functional ...

Plant water resource partitioning and isotopic fractionation during transpiration in a seasonally dry tropical climate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Lake Chala (3 degrees 19' S, 37 degrees 42' E) is a steep-sided crater lake situated in equatorial East Africa, a tropical semiarid area with a bimodal rainfall pattern. Plants in this region are exposed to a prolonged dry season, and we investigated if (

Remote Sensing of Endogenous Pigmentation by Inducible Synthetic Circuits in Grasses

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant synthetic biology holds great promise for engineering plants to meet future demands. Genetic circuits are being designed, built and tested in plants to demonstrate the proof of concept. However, developing these components in monocots, which the world relies on for grain, lags behind dicot models, such as Arabidopsis thaliana and ...
