Characterization of the polymorphism detected for the granule-bound starch synthase (WX gene) in wild einkorn wheat.

Journal of the science of food and agriculture - 15 Mar 2026

Alvarez Juan B, Castellano Laura, Guzmán Carlos

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The WX gene encodes the granule-bound starch synthase I or waxy protein, which is the sole enzyme responsible for amylose synthesis in wheat seeds. Wild einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum L. ssp. aegilopoides Link em. Thell.) could be an important source of variation for this gene. RESULTS: This study assessed the WX gene variability in 14 accessions representative of the variation for waxy proteins...
