The present study has been undertaken with the objective to investigate the effect of lead (Pb) on lipid metabolism in mustard during seed development. The study has been divided into four sections namely: Effect of different levels of lead on lipid composition of developing mustard seeds, Effect of lead (Pb) level on fatty acid composition of total lipids in developing mustard seeds, Effect of different level of lead on fatty acid composition of non- polar lipids of developing mustard seeds, Effect of different level of lead on fatty acid composition of polar lipids of developing mustard seeds.
