Abstract
The chemical composition of cuticular waxes, the micromorphology and the hydrophobicity of the adaxial side of apple leaves were examined during ontogenesis of apple plantlets grown under controlled environmental conditions. For the first time, α-tocopherol was detected in the epicuticular wax layer of apple leaves.
