Relative to the large number of photosynthetic dinoflagellate species, only a select few possess proteinaceous, carotenoid-rich eyespots which have been demonstrated in other algae to act in phototactic responses. The proteins comprising the different categories of dinoflagellate eyespots are positioned in or near the peridinin-containing photosynthetic plastid membranes which are composed primarily of two galactolipids, mono- and digalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG and DGDG). Within eyespot-containing dinoflagellates, this arrangement occurs mostly in those with secondary plastids, although some dinoflagellates with tertiary plastids of diatom origin are known to possess eyespots. We here provide an examination of the MGDG and DGDG composition of eyespot-containing dinoflagellates with secondary, peridinin-containing plastids and tertiary plastids of diatom origin to address the fundamental question of whether eyespots and their component proteins and carotenoids are associated with alterations in galactolipid composition when compared to eyespot-lacking photosynthetic dinoflagellates. This is an important question because the dinoflagellate eyespot-plastid membrane system can be considered a more complicated and evolved state of plastid development. Included in this examination are data on the previously unexamined peridinin- and type A eyespot-containing dinoflagellate Margalefidinium polykrikoides, and the type D eyespot-containing, aberrant plastid "dinotom" Durinskia baltica. In addition, we have reviewed the galactolipid composition of algae from the Chlorophyceae, Cryptophyceae, and Euglenophyceae as a comparison to determine if algal classes apart from the Dinophyceae contain altered galactolipids in association with eyespots. We conclude that the presence of an eyespot in dinoflagellates and other algae is not associated with noticeable changes in galactolipid composition.

Effects of dark treatment and N1-dichlorophenyl-N3-dimethylurea (DCMU) on the desaturation of galactolipids of Dunaliella salina were investigated to see whether light-driven photosynthetic electron transport is involved in in vivo desaturation of galactolipids. The incorporation of radioactive fatty acid precursors ([14C]lauric acid) into galactolipids, mainly composed of prokaryotic molecular species, was most affected among different polar lipid classes by both treatments. The analysis of specific radioactivities of individual galactolipid molecular species revealed that their synthesis was greatly inhibited by the treatments except for eukaryotic molecular species, 18 : 3/ 18 : 3 digalactosyldiacylglycerol, whose desaturation occurs in endoplasmic reticulum.

Panu ginseng (6 Year old) was grown $17^{\circ}C$/$15^{\circ}C$ and $27^{\circ}C$ day/$23^{\circ}C$ night in the light room of phytotron for 84 days. The composition of neutral lipid(NL), glycolipid(GL), phospholipid(PL) and fatty acids were investigated in leaves. The contents of NL and GL were higher in $25^{\circ}C$ while PL was lower. Similarity (simple correlation) of lipid composition between $16^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$ was not significant for PL and GL but significant for NL(p = 0.001), indicating that PL and GL were important factors in the mostability. Similarity of fatty acid composition between growth temperatures was highly significant (p = 0.001) for all three lipids, while similarity between lipids was significant between NL and PL (p=0.01) and NL and GL (p=0.05), but nonsignificant between GL and PL at $16^{\circ}C$. .In NL digalactosyldiacylglycerol (3->$7^{\circ}$) increased but monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (10%) did not change at $25^{\circ}C$. In PL phosphatidic acid (22 -> 4%) and phosphatidylinositol (18 -> 5%) decreased but phosphatidyl ethanolamine (12->l6%) increased at $25^{\circ}C$. Percent unsaturated acid slightly decreased in NL and PL but greatly increased in GL at $25^{\circ}C$. Percent unsaturated bond slightly decreased in NL but did not change in PL and GL.

The biosynthesis of galactolipid and the composition of fatty acid in chloroplast and thylakoid envelope isolated from C. ellipsoidea treated with antiseptics (potassium sorbate: PS, sodium benzoate:SB, calcium propionate:CP) were analyzed. The contents of monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG), digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) and total lipid in treatment with antiseptics were lower to compared with the control. The major fatty acid utilized for biosynthesis of MGDG in chloroplast envelope were palmitoleic acid (ave. 15.55%), oleic acid (ave. 15.09%) in control. Otherwise, the major fatty acids in P.S treatment were utilized for oleic acid (ave. 13.71%), linolenic acid (ave. 14.36%), palmitoleic acid (ave. 18.26%), oleic acid (ave. 17.26%) in S.B treatment, and oleic acid (ave. 16.88%), palmitoleic acid (ave. 16.31%) in CP treatment. It was showed that the major fatty acids in chloroplast envelope DGDG were oleic acid (ave. 15.75%), linolenic acid (ave. 17.74%) in control, oleic acid (ave. 14.90%), palmitoleic acid (ave. 15.97%) in P.S treatment, palmitoleic acid (ave. 13.29%), oleic acid (ave. 15.74%) in S.B treatment, and oleic acid (ave. 14.52%), palmitoleic acid (ave. 14.03%) in C.P treatment. The major fatty acid utilized for biosynthesis of MGDG in thylakoid envelope were linolenic acid (ave. 14.78%), oleic acid (ave. 12.90%) in control. Otherwise, the major fatty acids were utilized for palmitoleic acid (ave. 13.00%), palmitic acid (ave. 13.00%) in P.S treatment, palmitoleic acid (ave. 12.94%), oleic acid (ave. 12.43%) in S.B treatment, and oleic acid (ave. 12.43%), palmitoleic acid (ave. 12.43%) in C.P treatment. It was showed that the major fatty acids in thylakoid envelope DGDG were linolenic acid (ave. 18.01 %), oleic acid (ave. 15.53%) in control, linolenic acid (ave. 19.20%), linoleic acid (ave. 14.14%) in P.S treatment, palmitoleic acid (ave. 9.03%), oleic acid (ave. 14.85%) in S.B treatment, oleic acid (ave. 13.90%), linolneic acid(ave. 12.66%) in C.P treatment.
