Abstract
Abstract A compilation of data on the level of high melting point fatly acids in the phosphalidylglycerol of leaves of higher plants suggests that the content of these acids is not directly related to the chilling sensitivity of the plant. Within a given plant family the level of high melting point fatty acids in phosphatidylglycerol appears to be relatively constant, although the individual species may differ widely in their susceptibility to low temperature. It seems possible that differences observed in the levels of high melting point fatty acids in the phosphatidylglycerols of chilling‐sensitive and chilling‐tolerant plants may be largely due to choice of experimental material.
