Revisiting plant cuticle biophysics
Summary The plant cuticle is located at the interface of the plant with the environment, thus acting as a protective barrier against biotic and abiotic external stress factors, and regulating water loss. Additionally, it modulates mechanical stresses derived from internal tissues and also from the environment.

Fischer-Tropsch ionomeric waxes [PDF]
Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2003.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This dissertation describes work done on Fischer- Tropsch ionomeric waxes. The waxes are characterized with respect to the method of manufacture, the mechanism of the oxidation process, the

MYB41 acts as an activator and repressor on lipid biosynthesis in an organ‐ and development‐dependent manner. Abstract The plant cuticle controls non‐stomatal water loss and can serve as a barrier against biotic agents, whereas the heteropolymer suberin and its associated waxes are deposited constitutively at specific cell wall locations. While several

Abstract Despite decades of research resulting in a comprehensive understanding of epicuticular wax metabolism, the function of these almost ubiquitous metabolites in plant–herbivore interactions remains unresolved. In this study, we examined the effects of CRISPR‐induced knockout mutations in four Nicotiana glauca (tree tobacco) wax metabolism genes ...

Structure and properties of waxes
Voskovi su sve krute ili tekuće tvari koje sadrže ugljikovodike, kiseline, alkohole i estere bez obzira na podrijetlo ili način dobivanja. Zbog njihove složene strukture nije ih jednostavno opisati i zato postoje razne podjele voskova.

Partial Liquid Phase Oxidation of Microcrystalline Waxes to Produce Emulsifiable Waxes
Partially oxidized hard microcrystalline waxes commonly known as emulsifiable waxes have numerous industrial applications. These are also used as substitutes or extenders for vegetable waxes.
