Impact of Exogenous α-Linolenic Acid on ETR of Isolated Chloroplasts and Plant Growth.

(A) ETR of isolated chloroplasts in response to exogenous α-linolenic acid. Bars represent averages of three independent experiments (n = 6 to 9) ± se.

(B) α-Linolenic acid toxicity in pxa1 and Col-0 plants. Seedlings were germinated and grown on half-strength MS media supplemented with 2% sucrose and transferred to plates containing α-linolenic acid at the concentration indicated after 10 d. Pictures were taken 14 d after transfer.
