Acyl composition of total lipids and of FFA released by potato cells under anoxia
| Acyl Chain | Total Lipidsa | FFAa |
|---|---|---|
| mol % | ||
| 16:0 | 19.7 ± 0.5 | 16.3 ± 0.4 |
| 18:0 | 2.4 ± 0.1 | 1.7 ± 0.1 |
| 18:1 | 3.1 ± 0.4 | 2.7 ± 0.3 |
| 18:2 | 47.4 ± 0.6 | 49.5 ± 0.4 |
| 18:3 | 27.0 ± 0.2 | 29.5 ± 0.2 |
Total lipids and FFA were determined as described in Methods. n = 4.
Values obtained after 24 h of anoxia, with hydrolysis extents ranging from 45% to 60%.
