Over-expression of AtPAP2 in Camelina sativa leads to faster plant growth and higher seed yield

Table 2 Higher seed yield from transgenic Camelina lines

Seed Yield (g/plant)	OE6	OE14	OE20	Null-Line 6	Null-Line14	Null-Line20	WT
Trial I	1.73 ± 0.16^c	1.49 ± 0.20^c	1.04 ± 0.24^cb	0.85 ± 0.23^ab	0.66 ± 0.14^a	0.76 ± 0.24^a	0.89 ± 0.18^a
Trial II	2.22 ± 0.22^c	2.24 ± 0.27^c	2.09 ± 0.14^c	1.41 ± 0.07^ab	0.89 ± 0.25^b	0.74 ± 0.21^b	1.08 ± 0.16^a

Plants were grown in a growth chamber under a 16 h light 22°C/8 h dark 18°C temperature/photoperiod regimen and then transferred to a greenhouse after flowering. Values are means ± SD (n = 4-6). Within each row, values marked by different lower case letters are significantly different (p < 0.05). Trials I and II were independent experiments carried out in different growing seasons. OE, overexpressed line; WT, wild type.
