The composition of fatty acids in winter rape was analysed at three different stages of plant growth: before vernalization, after 56 days at vernalization temperature, and after seven days of growth at more elevated temperatures following vernalization. The analyses referred to four different part of plants: three different apical parts of stem and the youngest rosette leaves. The changes in composition of fatty acids, however were similar in all the four kinds of analysed tissues: the higher level of unsaturation fatty acids (DBI) caused primarily by the higher content of 18:3 acid at vernalization temperature dropped again at more elevated temperatures of plant growth. These changes were more clearly marked in leaves than in the other three kinds of apical tissues
