Table 3. Cuticular Wax Composition of Rosette Leaves of Arabidopsis Wild-Type, cer1-1, cer1-like1-1, CER1-LIKE1Ox, CER1Ox, and cer1-1:CER1-LIKE1Ox lines.
Mean values (µg.dm−2) of total wax loads and amounts of individual compound classes are given ± sds (n = 3). The sums include shorter chain-length constituents not presented in Figures 5 and 6.
