Genetic and environmental variation impact the cuticular hydrocarbon metabolome on the stigmatic surfaces of maize

Abstract Background Simple non-isoprenoid hydrocarbons accumulate in discrete regions of the biosphere, including within bacteria and algae as a carbon and/or energy store, and the cuticles of plants and insects, where they may protect against environmental stresses. The extracellular cuticular surf...
