Relative composition of cuticular waxes obtained either by mechanical removal or by extraction from the adaxial and abaxial surface of pea cv Avanta. Results are shown as means from five replications with 95% confidence intervals. As mechanical wax removal proved to be specific for epicuticular wax crystals, respective results can be interpreted as composition of the very surface of the leaf relevant for interaction with fungal spores.
