Aspartate kinase 2. A candidate gene of a quantitative trait locus influencing free amino acid content in maize endosperm.

Plant physiology - 1 Apr 2001

Wang X, Stumpf D K, Larkins B A

Abstract excerpt

The maize (Zea mays) Oh545o2 inbred accumulates an exceptionally high level of free amino acids, especially lysine (Lys), threonine (Thr), methionine, and iso-leucine. In a cross between Oh545o2 and Oh51Ao2, we identified several quantitative trait loci linked with this phenotype. One of these is...
