Epicuticular wax and cutin composition analysis of leaves of 4-weeks old wild type, rwa2-1 and rwa2-3 plants. (A) Composition of epicuticular waxes extracted by dipping in chloroform and derivatized with BSTFA. (B) Composition of depolymerized residual-bound lipids extracted extensively with methanol/chloroform followed by NaOMe-catalyzed acetylation. Values are means of at least five independent samples and the error bars represent the standard deviations. An asterisk indicate a statistically significance difference from the wild type by Student's t-test (P < 0.05).
