Abstract
Oil body (OB) is composed of phospholipids, proteins and neutral lipids. However, the changes of these components in walnut OB (WOB) during walnut growth have not been studied. In this paper, CLSM, TEM and LC-MS/MS were used to observe and quantify the microstructure, accumulation level and biochemical composition of WOB during the growth of walnut (Wen 185 cultivar). The results showed that WOB accumulated near the cell wall on day 60 and then toward the center of cell until it occupied the entire cell on day 88. Afterwards, the WOB began to grow and fuse. Analysis of the chemical composition of WOB indicated that phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidylserine and oleosins, caleosins, and steroleosins made up the WOB membrane. The core of the WOB consisted of 22 free fatty acids and monoacylglycerol, diglyceride, triglyceride. Phosphatidylcholine, triglyceride and oleosin contents continued to increase. The contents of phosphatidylglycerol, unsaturated fatty acids, caleosins and steroleosins continued to decline. The content of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylserine remained basically unchanged. These findings provided a basis for understanding the dynamic pattern of WOB bioaccumulation in walnut kernel at different developmental stages.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Food Composition and Analysis publishes manuscripts on scientific aspects of data on the chemical composition of human foods, with particular emphasis on actual data on composition of foods; analytical methods; studies on the manipulation, storage, distribution and use of food composition data; and studies on the statistics, use and distribution of such data and data systems. The Journal''s basis is nutrient composition, with increasing emphasis on bioactive non-nutrient and anti-nutrient components. Papers must provide sufficient description of the food samples, analytical methods, quality control procedures and statistical treatments of the data to permit the end users of the food composition data to evaluate the appropriateness of such data in their projects.
The Journal does not publish papers on: microbiological compounds; sensory quality; aromatics/volatiles in food and wine; essential oils; organoleptic characteristics of food; physical properties; or clinical papers and pharmacology-related papers.
