Alkanes, alcohols (primary and secondary), fatty acids and ketones (terminal and internal) were identified and quantified. The quantitative compositional results were analysed by chemometrie methods such as cluster and principal component analysis. A correlation was found between Colorado potato beetle infestation and quantities of specific chemical groups in epicuticular waxes.}, type={Article}, title={A correlation by chemometric methods of Solanum tuberosum epicuticular wax components and plant infestation with Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say)}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/131063/PDF-MASTER/5_PLANT_42_3_2002_Szafranek_A_Correlation.pdf}, keywords={chemometrics, epicuticular waxes, Solanum tuberosum L., plant infestation, Leptinotarsa decemlineata S.}, }
