The aim of this experiment was to study the effect of 24-epibrassinolide (BR₂₇) on fatty acids composition and sugar content in winter oilseed rape callus cultured at 20 and 5°C. Studies have showed that BR₂₇ action is highly temperature-dependent. The increase in sugar content (sucrose, glucose and fructose) by BR₂₇ in concentration 100 nM was observed only in calli cultured at 20°C. At 5°C, quite the opposite effect of BR₂₇ action was observed; where cold increased the sugar content, BR₂₇ decreased it. BR₂₇ at 20°C had a similar effect on the fatty acid composition of phospholipids (PL) as the cold in the process of frost hardening of oilseed rape calli. BR₂₇ decreased the 16:0, 18:1 and 18:2 and increased the 18:3 fatty acid content. At 5°C, BR₂₇ (100 nM) generally did not influence the fatty acid composition of PL. In case of digalactosyl diacylglycerols and monogalactosyl diacylglycerols, the influence of BR₂₇ on the fatty acid composition is ambiguous but still depends on temperature.
