Global changes in the metabolite profiles in Camelina transgenics and WT during the seed development. a Principle components analysis (PCA) showing the variability of metabolites contents of Camelina wild-type (WT) and transgenic GPD1, DGAT1, and D + G lines overexpressing both ScGPD1 and AtDGAT1 genes. The data represent the variance between the four biological replicates tested in each genotype. b Venn diagrams of the global changes of the metabolites abundance between Camelina WT and transgenic lines at three stages of seed development. The number of metabolites showed significant increase in transgenics compared to WT is highlighted in red, number of metabolites showed significant decrease in transgenics compared to WT is highlighted in green, and metabolites with no change are highlighted in black. DAF, days after flowering. WT, wild-type, GPD1, lines overexpressing ScGPD1 gene, DGAT1, lines overexpressing AtDGAT1 gene, and D + G, lines overexpressing both ScGPD1 and AtDGAT1 genes
