EROSION OF WAXES FROM LEAF SURFACES BY SIMULATED RAIN [PDF]
New Phytologist, 1986 SummaryEffects of simulated rain on the epicuticular wax of glaucous leaves have been studied. Droplets (250 to 400 μm) travelling at low or medium velocity (0.25 to 5 m s−1) fractured the dendrites and tubes on leaves of Brassica spp., the tubes on Eucalyptus globulus Labillardere and the ribbons on the adaxial surfaces of Pisum sativum L.

Leaf Epicuticular Waxes of the Eceriferum Mutants in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1995 Wild-type Arabidopsis leaf epicuticular wax (EW) occurs as a smooth layer over the epidermal surface, whereas stem EW has a crystalline microstructure. Wild-type EW load was more than 10-fold lower on leaves than on stems. Compared with the EW on wild-type stems, EW on wild-type leaves had a much higher proportion of their total EW load in the form of ...

Perinaphthenone phototransformation in a model of leaf epicuticular waxes [PDF]
Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology B: Biology, 2014 Perinaphthenone (1H-phenalen-1-one, PN) is a reference photosensitizer producing singlet oxygen with a quantum yield close to one in a large variety of solvents. It is also the basic structure of a class of phototoxic phytoalexins. In this work, the PN photoreactivity was studied for the first time in a paraffinic wax, used as model of leaf ...
