Molecular Characterization of a Spontaneous Waxy Starch Mutation in Cassava

2012-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) starch is traded in international markets more than starch from any other source. The starch industry requires cassava cultivars with novel starch characteristics for commercial exploitation. A natural source of waxy (amylose-free) cassava starch, clone AM 206-5, was identified at the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT). The granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI...
