Changes During Early Soybean Seed and Axes Deterioration: II. Lipids

Abstract: Peroxidative changes in seed lipids are thought to be a major cause of seed deterioration during storage. This study was conducted to determine the fatty‐acid composition of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] seeds, axes, and mitochondria during the early stages of deterioration. High‐quality seed lots of ‘Union’ and ‘Desoto’ soybean were stored at 25 °C and 115 g kg‐1 seed moisture for 10 and 12 months, respectively. Seeds were sampled at frequent intervals and the fatty‐acid composition of storage and membrane… Show more

“…The cell membranes present a wide superficial area and a high proportion of unsaturated fatty acids that makes lipids particularly susceptible to damage caused by peroxidation (Ferguson et al, 1990). Peroxidative alterations in the composition of fatty acid constituents of the polar lipids would affect the viscosity, permeability and the functioning of cell membranes (Priestley, 1986).…”

“…As principais alterações relacionadas ao processo de deterioração são degradação e inativação de enzimas (Copeland e McDonald, 2001), redução da atividade respiratória (Ferguson et al, 1990) e perda de integridade das membranas celulares (McDonald, 1999). Copeland e McDonald (2001) destacaram que para detectar o início da deterioração das sementes, as avaliações mais sensíveis são aquelas relacionadas à atividade de enzimas associadas à biossíntese em tecidos novos, uma vez que, com o processo de deterioração das sementes, as enzimas tornam-se menos eficientes para exercer sua atividade catalítica.…”

“…Foram observadas alterações nos lipídios e nas proteínas insolúveis em ácido em decorrência do envelhecimento artificial ( Ferguson et al, 1990). Diferentes mudanças na atividade enzimática, em conseqüência do envelhecimento artificial, foram observados por Bock (1999), em sementes de soja, indicando que o envelhecimento promove desorganização nos sistemas enzimáticos da semente.…”
