Rosette leave number, seed weight, and seed number in each silique of the transgenic lines over-expressing individual GmAP2 genes in the ap2-6 mutant. (A) The number of rosette leaves was calculated at the beginning of bolting to evaluate the flowering time of each transgenic line. Twenty plants for each line were selected to count the number of the rosette leaves. Data are presented as mean ± SD, Student’s t test (n = 20, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01). (B) Seeds were harvested from 10 plants for each line, and seed weight per 1,000 dried mature seeds was measured. Data are presented as mean ± SD, Student’s t test (n = 3, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01). (C) Twenty yellow siliques were collected from 10 plants each line, and seed number per silique was counted. WT indicates the wild type Arabidopsis. Data are presented as mean ± SD, Student’s t test (n = 20).
