The surface behaviour of monolayers of wheat phospholipids in the presence of phytohormones introduced into the water phase was studied using Langmuir’s method. The phospholipids were extracted from the plasmalemma of non-embryogenic (NE) and embryogenic (E) calli initiated from two types of explant: immature inflorescences (inf) and embryos (emb). The surface properties were investigated in model systems of monolayers of mixed phospholipids with: 1) natural amphiphile composition (PL); 2) a determined hydrophobic part (16:0) and the natural percentage composition of the hydrophilic part (PPL); and 3) a determined hydrophilic part (PC) and the natural percentage composition of the hydrophobic part (HPL). The lower limit values of the molecular area (Alim) were observed for NE rather than for E monolayers in all the investigated systems (PL, PPL and HPL). The collapse pressure (πcoll) of the monolayer decreased in the order PPL>PL>HPL, indicating the high stability of monolayers containing saturated hydrocarbon chains. The injection of non-surface-active phytohormones into the water subphase and the subsequent formation of natural and also artificial phospholipid monolayers of E and NE causes a decrease in monolayer stability against collapse and molecular close packing. As a result of their amphipathic (hydrophilic-hydrophobic) structure, the surface properties of E phospholipids are probably optimal for these systems. The decreasing stability of the NE monolayer caused by the presence of the phytohormone seems to be advantageous in terms of membrane preparation for the differentiation process. All the investigated lipid monolayers (highly) stimulated the adsorption of indole-3-acetic acid (to the highest extent/degree) (among the examined phytohormones) from the subphase. Zearalenone had a significant influence on the surface properties of NE PPL and NE HPL monolayers. This may be connected with the ability of this phytohormone to affect the non-embryogenic structure of wheat. An anomalous temperature effect was observed in the presence of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in the bulk; phospholipid monolayers of embryogenic calli induced from embryos (E emb) when the temperature decreased from 25 to 15°C. This phenomenon is ascribed to the dehydration of the polar groups in the monolayer.
