Abstract

Relatively little information is available concerning patterns of lipid and fatty acid metabolism in roots in comparison to leaves. We report here our findings on the in vivo lipid metabolism from 14C- acetate and 14C-glycerol in pea roots as part of a comprehensive approach towards under-standing root lipid metabolism.
