Fig. 3

The effect of WD on the accumulation of wax constituents in XL22 and XL17 leaves. A and C The main wax constituents in XL22 leaves at the seedling stage and bud stage, respectively. B and D The main wax constituents in XL17 leaves at the seedling stage and bud stage, respectively. C27 ALK, heptacosane; C28 ALK, octacosane; C29 ALK, nonacosane; C30 ALK, triacontane; C31 ALK, hentriacontane; C33 ALK, tritridecane. C16:0, hexadecanoic acid; C18:0, octadecanoic acid; C18:1n-9, 9-octadecenoic acid; C18:2n-6, 9,12-octadecadienoic acid. C28-OH, octacosanol; C30-OH, triacontanol; C32-OH, dotriacontanol. WW, well-watered; WD, water deficit. Error bars are standard errors. Values represent the means ± SE, n = 3. Asterisks denote significant difference as determined by the Student’s t test: *p < 0.05. XL22/SS, XL22 leaves at seedling stage; XL17/SS, XL17 leaves at seedling stage; XL22/BS, XL22 leaves at bud stage; XL17/BS, XL17 leaves at bud stage
