• Extracting the most from terrestrial plant-derived n-alkyl lipids and their carbon isotopes from the sedimentary record: A review (2017, background): “Relatively few studies of plant waxes in extant plants have compared the relative abundance and carbon isotopic composition of two or more compound classes (Chikaraishi et al., 2004b; Chikaraishi and Naraoka, 2006, 2007; Rommerskirchen et al., 2006; Vogts et al., 2009; Gao et al., 2015).”

• Leaf wax n-alkane distributions in and across modern plants: Implications for paleoecology and chemotaxonomy (2013, background): “5B, D, F and 6) could be a more direct reflection of local climatic influences such as aridity than of the plant groups per se (Rommerskirchen et al., 2006).”
• Influence of temperature and C4 abundance on n-alkane chain length distributions across the central USA (2015, background): “For modern plants, a recent study reported opposite trends in ACL in the leaves of two different genera with increasing aridity in Australia (Hoffmann et al., 2013), while another study of aridadapted plants in South Africa reported a significant but weak positive correlation between aridity and ACL”
• Opportunities and limitations related to the application of plant-derived lipid molecular proxies in soil science (2017, background): “Rommerskirchen et al. (2006) observed a generally higher content of C 31 and C 33 n -alkanes and therefore a higher ACL value in African C 4 grasses with respect to C 3 grasses from the same area as a result of the genetic adaptation of C 4 grasses to warm, arid habitats. addition, n -fatty acid…”
