Sterols have several roles in planta, including as membrane components. Sterols are also essential nutrients for insects. Based on this, and the different functions of leaves and pollen, we tested the hypotheses that (a) the sterolome is different in leaves and pollen from the same plant, (b) pollens from wind- and insect pollinated plants comprise different sterols, and (c) sterol provision in pollen-rewarding angiosperms differs from nectar-rewarding species. A novel approach to sterolomics was developed, using LCMS to determine the sterol profile of leaf and pollen from a taxonomically diverse range of 36 plant species. Twenty-one sterols were identified unambiguously, with several more identified in trace amounts. C29 sterols dominated the sterolome in most plants. The sterol composition was significantly different in leaf and pollen and their main sterols evolved in different ways. The sterolome of pollen from animal- and wind-pollinated was also significantly different, but not between nectar- and pollen-rewarding species. Our results suggest that the sterol composition in different plant tissues is linked to their biological functions. Sterol composition in pollen might be driven by physical role rather than the nutrient needs of pollinating insects. The sterolome of tissues from a taxonomically diverse range of plants were profiled. Sterol metabolism in plants is generally focused on C29 and C30 sterols. The sterolome of leaves and pollen differ within plants. The sterolome of pollens from wind- and animal-pollinated species differ. No evidence that sterol metabolism has evolved to support insect pollinators.
