General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction in a genetic background that is wild type at the FAD7 locus, the fad8 mutation has no detedable effed on overall leaf fatty acid composition irrespective of the temperature at which plants are grown. However, fatty acid analyses of individual leaf lipids reveales small decreases in the levels of 18:3 in two chloroplast lipids. In fad8 plants grown at 22°C, phosphatidylglycerol contains 22.5% 18:3 compared with 33.5% in wild type Arabidopsis Arabidopsis thaliana
malfunction mutations at the fad7 locus of Arabidopsis thaliana cause decreased desaturation of dienoic fatty acids in chloroplast lipids in plants grown at elevated temperatures Arabidopsis thaliana
