The presence of storage proteins has been reported in roots of several perennial and biennial weed and crop species, and particularly in members of the Compositae, Euphorbiaceae, and Leguminosae. In some species the amount of these root proteins fluctuates seasonally, increasing in the fall and winter months and declining in the spring and early summer. Also, the root proteins may decline during regrowth of decapitated plants. The evidence that these proteins play a role as storage proteins is frequently only circumstantial; moreover, they are usually only a relatively minor component of the total nitrogen pool within the root. Only one root protein, that from the dandelion taproot, has been extensively characterized, and it has no properties in common with known vegetative storage proteins. The literature on root proteins is reviewed, with particular emphasis on those present in taproots. The paucity of definitive data allows few conclusions to be reached, and more research is required to establish the role, nature, and importance of root proteins.
