Chloroplasts were isolated from triazine-sensitive and triazine-resistant biotypes of common groundsel (Senecio vulgaris L.), common lambsquarter (Chenopodium album L.), and redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus L.). Chloroplast lipids were extracted and analyzed for differences among sensitive and resistant biotypes. The distribution of lipid between major lipid classes differed in chloroplasts from resistant and susceptible biotypes. Chloroplasts from resistant biotypes contained higher proportions of monogalactosyl diglyceride and phosphatidyl ethanolamine and lower proportions of digalactosyl diglyceride and phosphatidyl choline than did chloroplasts from susceptible biotypes. Monogalactosyl diglyceride and phosphatidyl ethanolamine were also quantitatively higher in membranes of resistant versus susceptible biotypes. The major lipid classes of resistant chloroplast membranes contained lipids comparatively richer in unsaturated fatty acids with the exceptions of digalactosyl diglyceride from all three biotypes and phosphatidyl ethanolamine from common groundsel. Results correlated changes in triazine sensitivity with qualitative and quantitative differences in the lipid composition of chloroplast membranes.
