Abstract

Wax esters from the epicuticular wax of juvenile and mature-tree Pinus radiata foliage have been shown by capillary column GC-MS to consist mainly of short chain (C 6–C 12)alkanols esterified with long chain acids (C 24–C 32) and long chain alkanols (C 24–C 32) esterified with short chain acids (C 6-C 14) in a non-random manner. Mature-tree foliage wax esters also contained nonacosan-10-ol esterified with dodecanoic and tetradecanoic acids.
