Mutation of the maize sbe1a and ae genes alters morphology and physical behavior of wx-type endosperm starch granules.

Carbohydrate research - 10 Dec 2007

Li Ji-Hong, Guiltinan Mark J, Thompson Donald B

Abstract excerpt

In maize, three isoforms of starch-branching enzyme, SBEI, SBEIIa, and SBEIIb, are encoded by the Sbe1a, Sbe2a, and Amylose extender (Ae) genes, respectively. The objective of this research was to explore the effects of null mutations in the Sbe1a and Ae genes alone and in combination in wx background on kernel characteristics and on the morphology and physical behavior of endosperm starch granules. Differences...
