    Notes: Abstract Oleosomes, up to 14μm in diameter, were found in mesophyll and bundle sheath cells of the flag and lower leaves of wheat cv Professeur Marchal. They develop in flag leaves at least 10 d before anthesis, possibly from fatty acids secreted by the plastids, and persist in mature and senescing leaf tissue. Oleosomes are bordered with an osmiophilic layer rather than a unit membrane. The major lipids of oleosomes, isolated 20 d after anthesis, are triacylglycerols (50%) and sterol or wax exter (34%). The dominant fatty acids of both lipid classes are plamitic (16:0) and stearic (18:0) acids which accounts for the low osmiophilia of the oleosomes. The function of the oleosomes is unknown but they may act as short-term energy reserves. Oleosomes persist in leaves infected with brown rust, even in cells penetrated by haustoria. Yellowish-brown oleosomes found in senescing and rust-infected leaves may be formed by the release and coalescence of pigmented plastoglobuli.

    Notes: Abstract WIS-2-1A, a 8624 bp insertion in the Glu-1A-2 locus of chromosome 1A of wheat, consists of two 1755 bp long terminal repeats enclosing a 5114 bp internal region. No long open reading frames could be found, but inspection of the predicted amino acid sequence showed regions with homology to retrotransposon structures, including a methionine tRNA initiator binding site, a nucleotide binding domain, a protease, an integrase and a polymerase. DNA replication errors have resulted in frame-shifts in the protein coding region, suggesting that retrotransposition of WIS-2-1A, if it occurs, must be mediated by trans-acting factors.
