✦ Synopsis
The sesquiterpene composition of leaf cuticular neutral lipids of potato (Solanum tuberosum) varieties was investigated by GC, GC-MS and HPLC. The distribution of sesquiterpenes varied between varieties with the major components being b-caryophyllene, trans-b-farnesene, germacrene D, b-sesquiphellandrene and germacrene D-4-ol. cis-b-Farnesene and bicyclogermacrene were identiÐed in potato for the Ðrst time. The amount of sesquiterpenes was 10È60% of the cuticular neutral lipids depending on variety. The sesquiterpenes and alkanes were the major groups of components in the waxes investigated.
