Abstract excerpt
This study describes the effect of starch-synthesizing enzymes on biosynthesis of storage starch in rice amylose-extender mutants, which contain branched D-glucans with abnormal structures. Western blot analysis indicated that two out of five amylose-extender mutant lines lacked an isoform of sta...
