Abstract excerpt
An abundant protein in maize (Zea mays L.) embryos is a storage globulin encoded by the polymorphic Glb1 gene. Several Glb1 protein size alleles and a null allele have been described. Here we report the isolation and nucleotide sequence analysis of genomic clones corresponding to two Glb1 size alleles (Glb1-L and Glb1-S) and to the Glb1-0 null allele. The Glb1-L and Glb1-0 alleles differ from Glb1-S by the...
