Cotton is widely cultivated in temperate regions across the world and is often constrained by a short planting window that is bookended by low, suboptimal temperatures. With the growing interest in early season planting, improvements in the cold germination ability of cotton will be necessary to ensure the production stability of early planted crops. The importance of saturation levels of membrane and storage lipids in enhancing cold tolerance in plants, as well as improving cold germination ability in seeds have been widely researched in a range of plant species. While studies have shown that higher levels of unsaturated lipids can enhance cold germination ability and reduce seedling injury in other crops, similar efforts have been fairly limited in cotton. This review looks at the functional properties of membrane and storage lipids, and their role in membrane stability and reorganization during the early stages of germination. Additionally, the importance of storage lipid composition as an energy source to the growing embryo is described in the context of cellular energetics (i.e., fatty acid catabolism). Finally, perspectives in improving the cold germination of upland cotton by manipulating the fatty acid composition of both membrane and storage lipid content of seeds are presented.

Induced Aggregation

SummaryPlatelet aggregation and its relation to fatty acid composition of platelets, plasma and adipose tissue was determined in 196 randomly selected, free-living, 40-49-year-old men in two regions of Finland (east and southwest) with a nearly twofold difference in the IHD rate.There were no significant east-southwest differences in platelet aggregation induced with ADP, thrombin or epinephrine. ADP-induced platelet secondary aggregation showed significant negative associations with all C20-C22 ω3-fatty acids in platelets (r = -0.26 - -0.40) and with the platelet 20: 5ω3/20: 4ω 6 and ω3/ ω6 ratios, but significant positive correlations with the contents of 18:2 in adipose tissue (r = 0.20) and plasma triglycerides (TG) (r = 0.29). Epinephrine-induced aggregation correlated negatively with 20: 5ω 3 in plasma cholesteryl esters (CE) (r = -0.23) and TG (r = -0.29), and positively with the total percentage of saturated fatty acids in platelets (r = 0.33), but had no significant correlations with any of the ω6-fatty acids. Thrombin-induced aggregation correlated negatively with the ω3/6ω ratio in adipose tissue (r = -0.25) and the 20: 3ω6/20: 4ω 6 ratio in plasma CE (r = -0.27) and free fatty acids (FFA) (r = -0.23), and positively with adipose tissue 18:2 (r = 0.23) and 20:4ω6 (r = 0.22) in plasma phospholipids (PL).The percentages of prostanoid precursors in platelet lipids, i. e. 20: 3ω 6, 20: 4ω 6 and 20 :5ω 3, correlated best with the same fatty acids in plasma CE (r = 0.32 - 0.77) and PL (r = 0.28 - 0.74). Platelet 20: 5ω 3 had highly significant negative correlations with the percentage of 18:2 in adipose tissue and all plasma lipid fractions (r = -0.35 - -0.44).These results suggest that, among a free-living population, relatively small changes in the fatty acid composition of plasma and platelets may be reflected in significant differences in platelet aggregation, and that an increase in linoleate-rich vegetable fat in the diet may not affect platelet function favourably unless it is accompanied by an adequate supply of ω3 fatty acids.
