    • Analysis of composition, morphology, and biosynthesis of cuticular wax in wild type bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.) and its glossy mutant 

      Trivedi, Priyanka; Nguyen, Nga; Klavins, Linards; Kviesis, Jorens; Heinonen, Esa; Remes, Janne; Jokipii-Lukkari, Soile; Klavins, Maris; Karppinen, Katja; Jaakola, Laura; Häggman, Hely (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-03-09)
      In this study, cuticular wax load, its chemical composition, and biosynthesis, was studied during development of wild type (WT) bilberry fruit and its natural glossy type (GT) mutant. GT fruit cuticular wax load was ...
