Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation betaCA1 deficient Arabidopsis seedlings germinated.
- Intervention effect betaCA1 deficient Arabidopsis plants had significantly reduced seedling establishment at ambient CO2 compared with wild type.
- Intervention effect Sucrose supplemented plates restored seedling establishment to wild-type levels.
- Observation Seed protein and lipid content did not significantly differ between wild-type and transgenic plants.
- Observation Reserve mobilization during seedling growth did not significantly differ between wild-type and transgenic plants.
- Observation betaCA1 deficient seedlings had reduced light dependent 14CO2 assimilation before true leaf development.
- Observation Surviving betaCA1 deficient seedlings were phenotypically similar to wild type, including after subambient CO2 growth.
- Observation Mature leaves of betaCA1 deficient plants showed transcript abundance differences, particularly in ethylene signaling and response genes.
- Mechanism Poor cotyledon photosynthesis may explain reduced establishment of betaCA1 deficient seedlings.
