Isoprenoid hydrocarbons from the fruit of extant plants
1997
Velcheva, M.P. | Donchev, C.
The epicuticular waxes from the fruit of melons, tomatoes and paradise apples were found to contain the acyclic isoprenoids, pristane and phytane. The highest content of phytane (10.6%) was identified in the liquid wax of paradise apple. The unusually high pristane-phytane ratio of 2:1 in tomato liquid wax suggests that these isoprenoids could originate in geochemical samples such as coals and sediments not only from bacteria and phytol degradation, as has been previously suggested, but also from plant waxes.
