Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Arabidopsis otsA seeds had 13% more fatty acid content than wild type.
- Intervention effect Arabidopsis otsB seeds had 12% less fatty acid content than wild type.
- Intervention effect otsB expression significantly reduced WRI1 level and its target gene expression in developing seeds.
- Intervention effect Transient otsA expression increased de novo fatty acid synthesis rate by 29% in Nicotiana leaves.
- Intervention effect Transient otsA expression increased triacylglycerol 2.3-fold in Nicotiana leaves.
- Intervention effect Transient otsA expression increased total fatty acid content by 20% in Nicotiana leaves.
- Recommendation The authors support heterologous otsA expression to increase TAG in plant seeds and vegetative tissues.
