Characterization of dull1, a maize gene coding for a novel starch synthase.

The Plant cell - 1 Mar 1998

Gao M, Wanat J, Stinard P S, James M G, Myers A M

Abstract excerpt

The maize dull1 (du1) gene is a determinant of the structure of endosperm starch, and du1- mutations affect the activity of two enzymes involved in starch biosynthesis, starch synthase II (SSII) and starch branching enzyme IIa (SBEIIa). Six novel du1- mutations generated in Mutator-active plants were identified. A portion of the du1 locus was cloned by transposon tagging, and a nearly full-length Du1 cDNA...
