Fig. 4

The effect of WD on the accumulation of cutin monomers in XL22 and XL17 leaves. A and C The main cutin monomers in XL22 leaves at the seedling stage and bud stage, respectively. B and D The main cutin monomers in XL17 leaves at the seedling stage and bud stage, respectively. C16:0, hexadecanoic acid; C18:0, octadecanoic acid; C18:1n-9, 9-octadecenoic acid; C18:2n-6, 9,12-octadecadienoic acid. C18:3n-3, 9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid. C16:0 DCA, hexadecane-1,16-dioic acid; C18:0 DCA, octadecanedioic acid. C26-OH, hexacosanol; C28-OH, octacosanol. 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
