When winter rape plants were transferred from favourable temperature conditions (25/20°C day/night temperature) to 5°C, the frost resistance of the leaves was increased whereas the frost tolerance of the roots remained unaffected. This permitted an analysis of the changes in lipid and fatty acid composition both as related to functioning of the plant at low temperature alone (roots) and as related to adaptation to freezing and functioning at low temperature (leaves). — Transfer of the plants to 5°C lead to an increase in the level of linolenic acid in roots and leaves. This increase was most evident in the phosphatidyl choline and ethanolamine fractions of the leaves, and in the neutral lipids and in an unidentified phospholipid from the roots. It was concluded that upon transfer of the plants to 5°C a general and non-specific increase in linolenic acid level contributed to functioning of the rape plants at low temperature; and that parallel but minor increases in linolenic acid level of digalactosyl diglyceride, phosphatidyl inositol and the unknown phospholipid in roots and leaves could only contribute to low-temperature functioning in specific membrane enzyme locations. Combined adaptation of the leaves to freezing tolerance and low-temperature functioning was correlated with a higher level of phosphatidyl choline and ethanolamine, predominantly esterified with linolenic acid.  相似文献

Two breeding lines of “zero-erucic-acid” rapeseed (Brassica napus) were grown in climate chambers at a constant night temperature (12°C) and constant photoperiod (16 hours) but with different day temperatures (15, 20 and 25°C). Samples of leaves, siliques and immature seeds were analysed for total fatty acid pattern. The content of different acyl lipids and the fatty acid pattern of these lipids were also determined in some of the samples by use of preparative TLC followed by GLC of the fatty acids. The mature seeds produced by ten plants of each selection in each climate were analysed separately for total fatty acid composition. Mono- and digalactosyl diglycerides (MGDG, DGDG) were the predominant acyl lipids in leaves and siliques. In developing seeds they also were more abundant than the phospholipids, but in this case the neutral lipids, mainly triacylglycerols, contained about 95% of the total fatty acids. Large variations were found in the fatty acid composition of monogalactosyl diglyceride and digalactosyl diglyceride, isolated from leaves, siliques and immature seeds. The palmitic acid content of leaf MGDG was about 15 %, atypically high for MGDG from photosynthetic tissue. The linolenic acid content of the MGDG was about 45 %, 30 % and 10 % in the leaf, silique and seed tissues respectively. A hexadecatrienoic acid (16: 3) was found almost exclusively in the MGDG samples of leaves, siliques and immature seeds (about 25 %, 10 % and 3 % 16:3 respectively). The lipids of siliques — mainly photosynthetising tissue — were different from those of leaves and had especially high contents of stearic acid (6–12 % in the different lipids). For all lipid classes studied, leaves grown at the lowest day temperature had a slightly lower oleic and higher linolenic acid content than those grown at the highest temperature. On the other hand, increasing the day temperature caused a decreased level of oleic, an increased level of linoleic and an essentially unchanged level of linolenic acids in the mature seeds from both selections.  相似文献

The cytoplasmatic globules of Ilex aquifolium L. mainly consist of fatty acid esters of the triterpenoid alcohols α and β-amyrin. In very young leaves these are practically only palmitates. With increasing leaf age, increasing amounts of saturated and unsaturated C18 acids were found with comparatively high amounts of linoleic and linolenic acid in leaves of one year and older. Some accumulation of the triterpene precursor squalene was also observed with increasing age of the leaves. In addition to age effects, seasonal changes occur too. Independent of the age of the leaf, an increase in palmitic acid and a decrease in linoleic and especially linolenic acid was observed in the winter in mature leaves.  相似文献

To help understand the tolerances of desert succulents to extremely high temperatures (above 60°C), the effect of growth temperature on fatty acid composition of various membrane fractions from three species was investigated. When maintained at day/night air temperatures of 30°C/20°C, their chlorenchyma fatty acid compositions were similar to one another and to those of mesophytic leaves, except that desert succulents had appreciably less linolenic acid (18:3) and more oleic acid (18:1) and hence greater fatty acid saturation. The differences were observed in the chloroplast, mitochondrial and microsomal fractions and were more apparent in the nonpolar lipids than the total lipids. For all membrane fractions of Ferocactus acanthodes, a shift to 50°C/40°C resulted in a decrease in 18:3 and an increase in 18:1 and hence an increase in fatty acid saturation level. For Agave deserti and Carnegiea gigantea, however, increasing the day/night air temperatures did not result in increased fatty acid saturation, although their high-temperature tolerances increase about as much as that of F. acanthodes as the air temperature is increased. Thus, acquisition of high-temperature tolerance need not be accompanied by marked changes in fatty acid saturation or composition.  相似文献

The major fatty acids (16 and 18 carbons) in leaves, flowers, and seeds of Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Catterton have been analyzed at various intervals during the growth period. From the pattern of their accumulation and relative distribution, it was found that A) the amount of fatty acids in upper young leaves attained a maximum about 75 days after transplanting which is the time of early flowering, while in older leaves the fatty acids continuously declined; B) the relative amount of linolenic acid (18:3) increased progressively with leaf development, from 30% at an early stage to 60% at maturity, while other fatty acids (18:2, 18:1, 18:0, and 16:0) decreased during the same period, indicating a progressive desaturation; and C) a rapid increase of fatty acids was found as flowers developed into seedpods, particularly of linoleic acid (18:2), which comprises 75% of tobacco seed oil.

Air-curing resulted in a loss of fatty acids, especially the unsaturated ones.

The effect of growth temperature on the lipid fatty acid composition was studied over a temperature range from 35 to 10° C with 5° C intervals in four exponentially growing fungi: Aspergillus niger, Neurospora crassa, Penicillium chrysogenum, and Trichoderma reesei. Fatty acid unsaturation increased in A. niger, P. chrysogenum, and T. reesei when the temperature was lowered to 20–15, 20, and 26–20° C, respectively. In A. niger and T. reesei, this was due to the increase in linolenic acid content. In P. chrysogenum, the linolenic acid content increased concomitantly with a more pronounced decrease in the less-unsaturated fatty acid, oleic acid, and in palmitic and linoleic acids; consequently, the fatty acid content decreased as the temperature was lowered to 20° C. In T. reesei, when the growth temperature was reduced below 26–20° C, fatty acid unsaturation decreased since the mycelial linolenic acid content decreased. In A. niger and P. chrysogenum, the mycelial fatty acid content increased greatly at temperatures below 20–15° C. In contrast, in N. crassa, fatty acid unsaturation was nearly temperature-independent, although palmitic and linoleic acid contents clearly decreased when the temperature was lowered between 26 and 20° C; concomitantly, the growth rate decreased. Therefore, large differences in the effects of growth temperature on mycelial fatty acids were observed among various fungal species. However, the similarities found may indicate common regulatory mechanisms causing the responses. Received: 1 March 1995 / Accepted: 8 May 1995  相似文献

Treatment of Cucumis leaf discs with light and low temperature (1°C) resulted in degradation of the total lipids. In addition, a decrease of the linolenic acid content of the glycolipids of leaves and leaf discs took place while at the same time an increase in the content of unidentified degradation products from the glycolipids was observed. The decrease of the linolenic acid content was not due to galactolipase activity, since no monogalactosyl diglyceride acyl hydrolase activity was found. Dark and low temperature did not alter the fatty acid composition. Blue light and low temperature resulted in a decrease of the linolenic acid content, while yellow-, red- and far red light in combination with low temperature were ineffective.  相似文献

The fatly acid composition of different lipid fractions (neutral, glyco- and phospholipids) was studied in Sphagnum fimbriatum Wils, gametophytes grown in aseptic cultures at two temperatures (15°C and 25°C). The effect of a growth-retarding concentration (0.1 mM) of KF was also investigated. Fifteen-day treatment with KF affected the fatty acid composition more strongly at the higher than at the lower temperature. The proportion of palmitic acid (16:0) increased but the proportion of linoleic (18:2) decreased in all the lipid fractions, and that of linolenic (18:3) acid decreased in the fractions containing glyco- and neutral lipids. This indicates that the fluoride ions inhibit lengthening of the fatty acid chain. Compared with gametophytes grown at 25°C, material cultivated at 15°C had a much higher proportion of a highly unsaturated fatty acid, linolenic acid (18:3), in all the lipid fractions, but a lower proportion of oleic acid (18:1) in the neutral and phospholipids, and a lower proportion of linoleic (18:2) acid in all three fractions.  相似文献

Abstract— Rat cerebrum was analysed at 20 different ages from birth to 45 days of age, for its concentration of protein, cholesterol, cerebrosides, phospholipids and gangliosides, and for the concentration of fatty acids of the linoleic and linolenic acid series. The fatty acid patterns of choline phosphoglycerides and ethanolamine phosphoglycerides were determined at the same ages. Phases of rapid accretion were found for protein, phospholipids, gangliosides and cholesterol. The accretion of the fatty acids of the linoleic acid series ceased at 20 days of age, while that of the fatty acids of the linolenic acid series continued. The fatty acid composition of the phosphoglycerides changed during the maturation of rat cerebrum and these changes consisted of chain elongation, increased unsaturation and variation in the pattern of the polyenoic acids. These changes varied irregularly with age and each developmental stage had characteristic fatty acid patterns of choline and ethanolamine phosphoglycerides.  相似文献

Soybean seedlings were grown at 28°C under dark or light conditions for 12 days. Non-polar lipids (NPL) were separated by silicic acid column chromatography from total lipids in epicotyl containing young leaves, hypocotyl and root. The glyceride (TG, DG, and MG), free fatty acid (FFA) and sterol lipid (SE) components in NPL were analyzed mainly by thin-layer and gas-liquid chromatographies (TLC and GLC).

During germination, the amounts of polar lipids (PL) markedly increased in the tissues of soybean seedlings, especially in light-grown seedlings, whereas these of NPL increased slightly or maintained constant values. The features of the compositions and changing patterns of NPL in the tissues were more clarified in light-grown seedlings than in dark-grown ones. The pattern of change in fatty acid composition was similar in TG and 1,2-DG, which showed higher proportions of linoleic and linolenic acids, whereas FFA, 1,3-DG or MG had high proportions of saturated fatty acids. These results indicate that the compositions and changing patterns of NPL and their fatty acids in the tissues depend on the differences under two germinating conditions tested.  相似文献

Samples containing linolenic acid, potassium borate buffer, and lipoxygenase were frozen at two different rates to ?78.5 °C, then reacted at temperatures of ?5, ?10, or ?15 °C. Oxidation products of linolenic acid (hydroperoxides) were determined at various times by measuring the absorbance of thawed samples at 234 nm. The ultimate accumulation of oxidation products of linolenic acid decreased with decreasing temperature. Ultimate values obtained at ?5, ?10, and ?15 °C represented, respectively, 73, 59, and 47% of the ultimate value obtained at 0 °C. The two freezing rates studied had no effect on ultimate accumulation of oxidation products of linolenic acid at ?5, ?10, or ?15 °C.The relationship between ultimate accumulation of oxidation products and subfreezing storage temperature cannot be explained on the basis of greater irreversible denaturation of lipoxygenase as the subfreezing temperature was lowered. The pattern of decreased ultimate accumulation of product as the subfreezing temperature was lowered can perhaps be attributed to: (i) progressively greater reversible denaturation of the enzyme as the subfreezing temperature was lowered, and/or (ii) progressive increases in resistance to diffusion of substrate and reaction products as the subfreezing temperature was lowered.  相似文献

The lipid contents of callus cultures of rape (Brassica napus) and nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus) increase in response to decreasing the temperature, though to different degree. Irrespective of the incubation temperature the lipids in cultures of both plants contain as predominant classes steryl glycosides, esterified steryl glycosides, sterols, steryl esters and fatty acids and, as minor constituents, various proportions of triacylglycerols, phospholipids and several unidentified fractions.The ratio of phospholipids to triacylglycerols as well as the ratio of diacylglycerophosphorylethanolamines to dicylglycerophosphorylcholines increase with time both in rape cultures incubated at 30°C and in those kept at 5°C.The lipids in rape and nasturtium cultures grown at 30°C contain smaller proportions of polyunsaturated fatty acids than the lipids in cultures incubated at 5°C. Erucic acid, the major constituent fatty acid of the seed lipids, in both plants, occurs only in trace amounts in the lipids of callus cultures. In contrast, linoleic and linolenic acids, which occur only in traces in the seed lipids of nasturtium, are major constituent fatty acids in the lipids of callus cultures derived from seedlings of this plant.The levels of constituent polyunsaturated fatty acids in the diacylglycerophosphorylethanolamines and the diacylglycerophosphorylcholines increase with time whereas in the triacylglycerols only linolenic acid is slightly increased.  相似文献

Kinetin and zeatin were administered to leaves of intact plants of Coleus, Impatiens and Populus in long-term experiments (4 weeks and the variations of the fatty acid content of saponifiable lipids determined. In the same species there are no significant differences between the effects of the two cytokinins. In Impatiens and Populos the content of linolenic acid increases. The behaviour of palmitic and linoleic acids is variable. Coleus plants were treated with zeatin at 15 and 25°. At the higher temperature the hormone causes a distinct rise of palmitic and a diminution of linolenic acid.  相似文献

A series of phosphatidylcholines and phosphatidylethanolamines was synthesized containing two acyl chains of the following polyunsaturated fatty acids: linoleic acid (18:2), linolenic acid (18:3), arachidonic acid (20:4) and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6). In addition two phospholipids with mixed acid composition were synthesized: 16:0/18:1c phosphatidylcholine and 16:0/18:1c phosphatidylethanolamine. The structural properties of these lipids in aqueous dispersions in the absence and in the presence of equimolar cholesterol were studied using 31P-NMR, freeze fracturing and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).The phosphatidylcholines adopt a bilayer configuration above 0°C. Incorporation of 50 mol% of cholesterol in polyunsaturated species induces a transition at elevated temperatures into structures with 31P-NMR characteristics typical of non-bilayer organizations. When the acyl chains contain three or more double bonds, this non-bilayer organization is most likely the hexagonal HII phase, 16:0/15:1c phosphatidylethanolamine shows a bilayer to hexagonal transition temperature of 75°C. The polyunsaturated phosphatidylethanolamines exhibit a bilayer to hexagonal transition temperature below 0°C which decreases with increasing unsaturation and which is lowered by approximately 10°C upon incorporation of 50 mol% of cholesterol. Finally, it was found that small amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acyl chains in a phosphatidylethanolamine disproportionally lower its bilayer to hexagonal transition temperature.  相似文献

When the dry sperm of the sea urchin, Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus, were diluted 100 times in artificial sea water at 0°C and at 20°C, they became motile and the levels of ATP and creatine phosphate decreased rapidly. The level of ADP hardly changed, and the AMP level increased after the dilution. After the dilution, the respiratory rate at 2°C was almost one fifth that of 20°C. Both phospholipid and glycogen were used for the energy sources in sea urchin sperm. The level of phospholipid was 10-fold higher than that of glycogen in the dry sperm. The phospholipid level decreased after dilution at 20°C, though the level hardly changed at 0°C, suggesting that phospholipid was hardly metabolized the lower temperature. The level of α -glycerophosphate increased at 20°C after the dilution but did not change at 0°C. The level of glycogen decreased after the dilution, regardless of the temperature. The glycolysis was also activated after the dilution. Of the intermediates of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, the citrate concentration increased at 0°C and the malate concentration also increased at 0°C and especially strongly at 20°C.  相似文献

Substrate for an endogenous oxidation in homogenates of leaves of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) was traced to two fractions of lipids, each representing less than 2% of the dry weight of leaves. The substrate lipids, tentatively identified as galactosyl diglycerides, yielded linolenic and linoleic acids on acid hydrolysis. Amounts of linolenic acid in total lipids in resistant and susceptible leaves were similar. Amounts of free linolenic acid in resistant leaves increased eightfold to 408.6 μg and in susceptible leaves fourfold to 130.6 μg/g fresh leaf after homogenization and incubation for 16 min at 4 °C. These quantities are sufficient to account during their lipoxidation for the previously reported oxygen uptakes in homogenates. Differences between resistant and susceptible leaves were traced to the activities of lipase systems which liberate linolenic acid from substrate lipids.  相似文献

After 7 days of germination in the dark, the three sections of pea seedlings studied (cotyledons, stems, and young leaves) are rich in linoleic acid; after illumination of the seedlings a very significant increase in linolenic acid is observed in the young leaves section, whereas only small variations are noted in the fatty acid composition of the other sections. The increase in linolenic acid results from the increase in galactolipid content of the young leaves; these already linolenic acid-rich galactolipids are present but only in small amounts in the etiolated seedlings (10% of total lipid).  相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of salinity on growth, fatty acid composition, phenol content and antioxidant activity of Nigella sativa organs. Plants were grown hydroponically under NaCl stress (0, 20 40 and 60 mM). The results indicated that salinity affected N. sativa growth. The fatty acid composition of the leaves and the roots was investigated for the first time and major fatty acids were linolenic acid (58.1%) in the leaves and linoleic (43.9%) and palmitic (33.3%) acids and in the roots. Total fatty acid (TFA) content of the leaves decreased at 60 mM NaCl while root TFA increased at 20 and 40 mM NaCl. Moreover, the fatty acid composition was affected by NaCl; in leaves, the double bond index (DBI) decreased accompanied by a decrease of the level of linolenic acid which reached 14% at 60 mM NaCl. However, root DBI degree increased at 40 at 60 mM NaCl provoked mainly by the increase of the amount of linoleic acid by 15 and 8%, respectively, and the decrease of the amount of palmitic acid by 20 and 14%, respectively. Salt stress increased total polyphenol and individual phenolic acid contents in shoots. Moreover, the antiradical activity of the shoots (DPPH) increased at 60 mM NaCl. However, in roots, the total polyphenol content and the antiradical activity decreased sharply with increasing NaCl doses. Data reported here revealed the variation of fatty acids and phenolic compound contents in different organs of N. sativa, and the possible role of theses changes in the plant salt response were discussed.  相似文献

Changes in endogenous phytohormone levels, DNA methylation patterns, and expression levels of related genes during induction of dormancy in two strawberry cultivars, Darselect and All Star, were studied under controlled environmental conditions. At 12°C, regardless of day length, potted, runner-derived plants of both cultivars gradually exhibited morphological traits typical of dormancy after treatment for 8 weeks. These morphological changes were accompanied by a synchronous significant decline in indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) level and increases in abscisic acid (ABA) content and global genomic DNA methylation in young leaves. Exposed at 15°C and a short-day photoperiod, the changes in morphology, phytohormone levels and DNA methylation of both cultivars were similar to those observed at 12°C. Slight but non-significant changes in IAA and ABA levels and genomic DNA methylation occurred in young leaves at both 15°C with long days and 18°C with short days. These results indicated that temperature alone was sufficient to induce strawberry to enter the typical dormant phase, and day length had no impact at 12°C. The higher temperature permissible for dormancy induction in strawberry was 15°C, but at this temperature dormancy induction was modified by day length. The expression patterns of FaPIN1, FaNCED1, FaDRM and FaROS1 were coincident with the changes in phytohormone levels and DNA methylation. Although the two tested cultivars have different temporal responses with the different degree of cold tolerance and depth of dormancy, both the endogenous phytohormone and DNA methylation were changed when induced by external environmental factors.  相似文献

One approach to studying the importance of membranes in freeze-thaw damage is to modify their composition and study the effect of this modification on survival after freeze-thaw damage. Fatty acid desaturase auxotrophs of yeast cells were enriched with two fatty acids having substantially different physical properties thus resulting in cells whose membranes had very different physical properties. The fatty acids were stearolic acid (mp = +45 °C) and linolenic acid (mp = ?10 °C). Electron-spin resonance studies showed that membranes containing the latter fatty acid were more fluid than those containing stearolic acid. The yeast were grown under either anaerobic or aerobic conditions. In the former case, the mitochondria appear as membraneous shells with little, if any, internal membrane structure; thus, the plasma and tonoplast membranes are the primary membranes. Yeast cells grown under these conditions survived freezethaw damage (?196 °C) significantly better when the fatty acid composition was mainly stearolic acid rather than linolenic acid. The absolute survival depended on the freezing rate and the differences in survival became small at fast rates. With yeast cells grown under aerobic conditions, when functional mitochondria are formed, the pattern in freeze-thaw survival reversed; cells with γ-linolenic acid in their membranes survived significantly better than cells containing stearolic acid.  相似文献
