- Leaf wax n-alkane distributions in arid zone South African flora: Environmental controls, chemotaxonomy and palaeoecological implications (2014, background): “Comparative data concerning leaf wax concentration/production are less often reported (Bush and McInerney, 2013), but the importance of the issue for the interpretation of sedimentary archives has recently been demonstrated (Diefendorf et al., 2011).”
- Molecular Paleohydrology: Interpreting the Hydrogen-Isotopic Composition of Lipid Biomarkers from Photosynthesizing Organisms (2012, methodology): “The regression parameters for trees were similar to the parameters of the relationship between sedimentary n-C29 alkanes and δDMAP, possibly indicating the importance of angiosperm tree-derived leaf-wax input into sedimentary archives (e.g., Diefendorf et al. 2011).”
- Extracting the most from terrestrial plant-derived n-alkyl lipids and their carbon isotopes from the sedimentary record: A review (2017, background): “Surveys of lake sediments and vegetation suggest that leaf wax input from angiosperm trees may dominate the lacustrine sedimentary record, at least for n-alkanes (Cranwell et al., 1987; Sachse et al., 2006, 2012; Diefendorf et al., 2011; Tipple and Pagani, 2013).”
- Production of leaf wax n-alkanes across a tropical forest elevation transect (2016, background): “…among the 561 26 most abundant compounds in evergreen angiosperm leaf waxes, representing ~2/3 of all wax 562 components, but the proportions vary between plant types, with n-alkane contributions being 563 much less in deciduous angiosperms and negligible in gymnosperms (Diefendorf et al., 2011).”
