Impact of RAP treatment on chloroplast development. A Transmission electron microscopy of RAP treatment on day 3. White arrows point to lipid droplets and black arrows to starch granules. B Chlorophyll content of RAP treatment on day 3. C The diameter of single cells from 3 days of RAP treatment. D Characterization of relative lipid content in RAP-treated single cells using Nile-Red staining and lipid productivity on 96 h after RAP treatment were extracted. DMSO indicates the control group treated with the solvent DMSO, and D + R represents the experimental group treated with RAP. *, p-value < 0.05, **, p-value < 0.01, ***, p-value < 0.001, ****, p-value < 0.0001. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean (n = 3)
