Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation PLMT was expressed across organs and localized to the endoplasmic reticulum.
- Intervention effect PLMT overexpression increased phospholipids including PC.
- Observation Siliques were shorter, whereas pollen remained viable and mature seeds were produced.
- Observation Pollen remained viable and mature seeds were produced.
- Observation Seed triacylglycerol content increased.
- Observation Seed fatty acid composition was altered.
- Mechanism The authors suggest PLMT may function in PC biosynthesis and have an organ-specific role in developing seeds.
