A Comparison of the Composition of Wax Ester Molecular Species of Different Coral Groups (Subclasses Hexacorallia and Octocorallia)

Wax esters, which are esters of fatty alcohols and fatty acids (FAs), are one of the main classes of reserve lipids in all coral species. The chemical structures and the content of wax ester molecular species were determined for the first time in nine coral species from three taxonomic groups: symbi...
