Figure 5.

The lat5-1 shows increased free amino acid content in the siliques and increased nitrogen content in the seeds, compared to the WT. (a) The total free amino acid concentration is increased in both stem and silique and decreased in the leaves in the lat5-1 compared to the WT. The total free amino acids detected in the WT was arbitrarily taken as 100% to calculate the relative amount in the lat5-1. Error bar represents the standard deviation of three biological replications. (b) The seed weight is significantly increased in the lat5-1, compared to the WT. (c) The percent of nitrogen content is significantly increased in the lat5-1, compared to the WT. Error bar represents the standard deviation of nine replications from three individual plants with 100 seeds per replication. * p-value < 0.05; ** p-value < 0.01; *** p-value < 0.001.
