Microstructural observation of lipid droplets in B. napus embryos. a and b The microstructure of lipid droplets in the mature pollens of the BnLPAT2 and BnLPAT5 transgenic lines. Scale bar, 20 μm. c Microstructure of cotyledons in the mature seeds of different BnLPAT2 and BnLPAT5 transgenic lines. LP2-G123 and LP2&LP5-G134 are the multi-gRNA-mediated knockouts of BnLPAT2 and BnLPAT5 from G1 to G4 as described in a previous work [32]. LP2-OE*LP5-OE represents the crossing lines of LP2-OE and LP5-OE, and LP2&LP5-G123*G4 represents the crossing lines of LP2-G123 and LP5-G4. Green arrows indicate the cell wall. Red arrows indicate OBs. Yellow arrows indicate PBs. Blue arrows indicate starch. Scale bar, 10 μm
