Abstract
Parallel to the changes which have been described in the metabolism of dormant storage tissue during "aging", a several-fold increase in fatty acid synthetase activity and a change in the pattern of fatty acid synthesis was observed in aging potato disks. These changes occur very early in the aging process. Their significance is discussed.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
