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.

371 TRITERPENES IN GRAPEFRUIT EPICUTICULAR WAX [PDF]

HortScience, 1994
The purpose of this study was to identify compounds in the wax of fruit obtained from different canopy positions for possible relationships to chilling injury development. Both exterior and interior canopy grapefruit wax extracts were separated by thin layer chromatography into four lipid classes: alkanes, aldehydes, linear alcohols and triterpenes ...

Genetic Analyses of Epicuticular Waxes Associated with the Glossy Foliage of ‘White Persian’ Onion

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2019
Onion (Allium cepa) plants with lower amounts of epicuticular waxes on foliage suffer less damage from the insect pest Thrips tabaci (onion thrips). Glossy onion accumulates significantly less epicuticular wax compared with wild-type “waxy” onion, and a ...

Genome-Wide Association Study for Maize Leaf Cuticular Conductance Identifies Candidate Genes Involved in the Regulation of Cuticle Development. [PDF]

, 2020
The cuticle, a hydrophobic layer of cutin and waxes synthesized by plant epidermal cells, is the major barrier to water loss when stomata are closed at night and under water-limited conditions.
