Starch Synthase 3 isoforms are essential for normal starch granule initiation in wheat endosperm.

The New phytologist - 1 Apr 2026

Abstract excerpt

Wheat grains have two distinct types of starch granules. Large, lenticular A-type granules are formed from a single initiation per amyloplast during early grain development, while numerous small B-type granules are initiated during later grain development. Here, we demonstrate that the two isoforms of Starch Synthase 3 in wheat (SS3a and SS3b) are essential for normal starch granule initiation in the endosperm....
