Abstract:Thiophene synthesis and accumulation were investigated in organsof Tagetes patula and T. erecta. Thiophene accumulation startedrapidly in germinating seedlings of both species. Roots andhypocotyls were the major thiophene accumulating organs and5-(3-buten-1-ynyl)-2, 2-bithienyl (BBT) and 5-(4-acetoxy-1-butynyl)-2,2 -bithienyl (BBTOAc) were the major accumulated compounds.Higher thiophene concentrations were reached in Tagetes patulathan in T. erecta. Accumulation patterns for individual thiopheneswere different within organs, between organs and between bothspecies. Within hypocotyls of Tagetes patula, thiophene concentrationswere high in the epidermis and the vascular tissue and low inthe parenchymatic tissues of cortex and pith. Synthesis of thiopheneswas high in the roots and hypocotyls and very low in the leaves.Transport of thiophenes from the roots into the shoot occurred,but the rate of transport was too low to explain the high concentrationsin the hypocotyl. It is concluded that for the main part thiophenesare accumulated where they are synthesized. Key words: Tagetes, hiophenest, synthesis, accumulation, secondary metabolites
