Other claims from this paper (14)
- Observation PGI1 is strongly expressed in maturing embryos and vascular tissues.
- Intervention effect PGI1-null plants had about 60% lower seed yield than wild type.
- Intervention effect PGI1-null plants had fewer inflorescences.
- Intervention effect PGI1-null plants had fewer siliques and seeds per plant.
- Association PGI1-null yield traits were associated with low bioactive GA contents.
- Intervention effect pgi1-2 seeds were lighter than wild-type seeds.
- Intervention effect pgi1-2 seeds accumulated about 50% less fatty acids.
- Intervention effect pgi1-2 seeds accumulated about 35% less protein.
- Observation Cytokinin-deficient 35S:AtCKX1 seeds did not have low fatty acid levels.
- Observation GA-deficient ga20ox1 ga20ox2 mutant seeds did not have low fatty acid levels.
- Intervention effect Cytokinin application did not rescue reduced seed weight and fatty acid content.
- Intervention effect GA application did not rescue reduced seed weight and fatty acid content.
- Observation Reciprocal-cross seeds accumulated wild-type levels of fatty acids and proteins.
- Mechanism PGI1 affects seed yield through GA-mediated reproduction and conversion of plastidial glucose-6-phosphate to storage reserves.
