Overexpression of BnaFAX1-1 in B. napus upregulates gibberellic acid biosynthesis, which may contribute to biological yield increase. A GA4 (gibberellic acid A4) content in leaves from 32-day-old WT and B. napus lines overexpressing BnaFAX1-1. B Expression patterns of GA4 biosynthetic and metabolic genes. The yellow indicates higher gene expression levels and the blue indicates lower gene expression levels. COPALYL DIPHOSPHATE SYNTHASE, CPS; KAURENE SYNTHASE, KS; KAURENE OXIDASE, KO; KAURENOIC ACID OXIDASES, KAOs; GA 20-OXIDASE, GA20OX; GA 2-OXIDASE, GA2OX; GA 3-OXIDASE, GA3OX; GIBBERELLIC ACID CARBOXYL METHYLTRANSFERASE, GAMT. C Confirmation of the relative expression levels of selected genes by RT-qPCR. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, Student’s t test (n = 4–6 ± SD)
