Overexpression of ß-Ketoacyl Co-A Synthase1 Gene Improves Tolerance of Drought Susceptible Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) Cultivar K-6 by Increased Leaf Epicuticular Wax Accumulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Drought is one of the major environmental constraints affecting the crop productivity worldwide. One of the agricultural challenges today is to develop plants with minimized water utilization and reduced water loss in adverse environmental conditions ...

Major Components of Epicuticular Wax From Fruit of the Canadian Prairies: Saskatoon Berry (Amelanchier alnifolia), Canadian Dwarf Sour Cherry (Prunus × kerrasis), Haskap (Lonicera caerulea), and Red Twinberry (Lonicera utahensis)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, Volume 128, Issue 5, May 2026.
Composition of chloroform extractable surface wax from fruit was determined by GC and GC/MS. The major components of Saskatoon berry wax were nonacosan‐10‐ol and nonacosane. Canadian sour cherry wax was enriched in the pentacyclic triterpenoids and haskap in nonacosan‐10‐ol and nonacosan‐5,10,‐diol. Red twinberry wax contained triterpenoids.

Unraveling Soil Organic Matter Dynamics in Tropical Wetlands Through Advanced Thermal and Pyrolytic Approaches

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
ABSTRACT The dynamics of soil organic matter (SOM) and humic acids (HA) in a permanent and seasonal wetland located in southeastern Brazil (hydromorphic soils and gramineous vegetation) were assessed through thermogravimetry, evolved gas analysis, and analytical pyrolysis. The n‐alkane series in all samples spanned from C13 to C35, regardless of season,

Response to Selection for Unique Epicuticular Wax Profile on the Semi-glossy Foliage of Onion

open access: yesJournal of the American Society for Horticultural Science
Epicuticular waxes on onion (Allium cepa) foliage offer protection against water loss, pathogens, and pests. Onion leaves with a light green color are referred to as “glossy” and have less total wax compared with that of darker blue-green (“waxy ...

Application of an innovative technique for histological and histochemical study of different vegetal tissues

open access: yesJournal of Biological Research, 2009
A new original "cryostabilization" technique (Dore, 1992; Dore et al, 2004) was applied to different animal tissues and organs. In this study, we apply this technique also to vegetal tissues (ripening and ripe fleshy fruits, buds and embryos).
