Variability in Rubber and Resin Content Within and Among Eight Guayule Cultivars
Abstract Mean rubber concentration of 3-year-old guayule ( Parthenium argentatum Gray) ranged from 7.37% to 9.72% among 8 cultivars. Resin concentration ranged from 4.48% to 6.69%. All cultivars were homogeneous for rubber and resin concentration, except N565.

Evaluation of Guayule Resin as an Innovative Bio-Based Asphalt Alternative in MIX Performance
Literature revealed the potential of using guayule resin for asphalt cement replacement from the binder’s perspective. However, monitoring guayule resin through binder-aggregate mixture could disclose its performance through field. In this study, designated binders were employed to investigate the applicability of such an innovative replacer ...
