Isolation and recrystallization of epicuticular waxes from Sorbus and Cotoneaster leaves

Open Life Sciences, 2015
Wax morphology and chemical composition are widely accepted to be important for the protective properties of the leaf’s surface and also valuable characteristics in plant systematics. The leaves of Sorbus domestica L.

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

Journal 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

Journal 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).

Bio‐Based Wax Interfaces for Droplet Energy Harvesting at Fluoropolymer‐Like Output Levels

Advanced Science
Droplet impact and rebound on solid surfaces has emerged as a promising method for energy harvesting, typically demonstrated using fluorinated polymers that generate high voltages via liquid–solid contact electrification. However, these materials are non‐

Use of palmae wax hydrocarbon fractions as chemotaxonomical markers in Butia and Syagrus

Brazilian Journal of Biology
The wax hydrocarbon fractions of native Butia and Syagrus species collected from Palms in different regions of the of Rio Grande do Sul state (Brazil) and in Rocha (Uruguay) were analyzed to evaluate their potential as chemotaxonomic markers. The wax was

Alkanes of foliar epicuticular waxes of velloziaceae

Phytochemistry, 1989
Abstract One hundred and ten species of Velloziaceae were surveyed for the distribution of the alkanes in their foliar epicuticular waxes. Longer chains were found in waxes of representatives of subfamily Barbacenioideae, the main homologues being mostly n -C 33 or n -C 35 except most members of Pleurostima , which had n -C 31 or n -C 33 the

Epicuticular waxes of two sorghum varieties

Phytochemistry, 1978
Abstract The epicuticular waxes of the two sorghum varieties Alliance A and SD 102 have been analyzed, after separation of the leaf blades from the sheaths. The major constituents were found to be free fatty acids but small amounts of esters, aldehydes, alcohols, n -alkanes and sterols were also detected. The typical chain lengths of aldehydes, free
