Abstract excerpt
Nucleotide sugars serve as the substrates for the biosynthesis of cell wall polysaccharides. Although the enzymes such as uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucose dehydrogenase (UGD) involved in nucleotide sugar biosynthesis have been biochemically characterized, their biological roles in plants remain largely unexplored. In this study, we identify a rice mutant weakness and root hair defective 1 (wrd1), which exhibits...
