Influence of surfactant HLB values and commercial agricultural adjuvants on pesticide mimic penetration in plant leaves. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
Penetration of a pesticide mimic into a spring onion leaf due to the presence of a surfactant additive. Abstract BACKGROUND Effective pesticide action is crucial for optimizing efficacy and minimizing environmental impact, particularly with the increasing reliance on systemic pesticides.

Leaf Cuticular Transpiration Barrier Organization in Tea Tree Under Normal Growth Conditions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The cuticle plays a major role in restricting nonstomatal water transpiration in plants. There is therefore a long-standing interest to understand the structure and function of the plant cuticle.

Genetic Analysis of the Unique Epicuticular Wax Profile of ‘Odourless Greenleaf’ Onion

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2021
The amounts and types of epicuticular waxes on onion (Allium cepa) leaves affect the severity of feeding damage by onion thrips (Thrips tabaci), a serious insect pest of onion.

Preparation and characterization of epicuticular wax films [PDF]

Heliyon, 2019
Dipping films from epicuticular wax (EW) were prepared as model systems of epicuticular wax films found in plants. In these films, the growth uniformity, surface morphology, and hydrophobicity were examined. It was observed growth uniformity (linear growth) only from the fifth layer onwards because of the influence of substrate.

Response of Commelina erecta L. to glyphosate formulations, and role of starch and waxes in glyphosate sensitivity

Ecología Austral, 2022
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of two formulations of glyphosate on adult plants and seedlings of Commelina erecta L., and to determine whether stem starch storage and epicuticular waxes of leaves are involved in plant sensitivity to ...

Toward in Vivo Chemical Imaging of Epicuticular Waxes   [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2010
Abstract Epicuticular waxes, which are found on the outer surface of plant cuticles, are difficult to study in vivo. To monitor the growth, development, and structural alterations of epicuticular wax layers, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) might be used.

Cuticular wax composition of mature leaves of species and hybrids of the genus Prunus differing in resistance to clasterosporium disease

Biosystems Diversity, 2020
The interaction of a host plant with pathogen implies an extremely complex process involving the outer waxy layer of the cuticle, cutin, cell membrane, and intracellular structures. However, the initial contact between plants and pathogens takes place in
