Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation TaCYP78A3 encodes wheat cytochrome P450 CYP78A3.
- Observation TaCYP78A3 was specifically expressed in wheat reproductive organs.
- Association TaCYP78A3 activity correlated positively with final wheat seed size.
- Intervention effect Silencing TaCYP78A3 reduced wheat seed coat cell number.
- Intervention effect TaCYP78A3 over-expression increased Arabidopsis seed coat cell production.
- Intervention effect TaCYP78A3 over-expression increased Arabidopsis seed size by 11-48%.
- Mechanism TaCYP78A3 expression level determined final seed coat cell number by affecting integument cell proliferation.
- Intervention effect TaCYP78A3 over-expression reduced Arabidopsis seed set.
- Intervention effect TaCYP78A3 over-expression promoted embryo integument cell proliferation during Arabidopsis seed development.
- Mechanism TaCYP78A3 over-expression affected Arabidopsis embryo development and final seed size.
