Abstract excerpt
Starch is an important primary metabolite in plants, which can provide bioenergy for fuel ethanol production. There are many studies focusing on starch metabolism in Arabidopsis, maize, and rice, but few reports have been made on the starch content of tobacco leaves. Hence, to identify the marker-trait associations and isolate the candidate genes related to starch content of tobacco leaf, the genome-wide...
