Identification of novel rice low phytic acid mutations via TILLING by sequencing
2014-12-01
Abstract excerpt
Phytic acid (myo-inositol-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexakisphosphate or InsP₆) accounts for 75–85 % of the total phosphorus in seeds. Low phytic acid (lpa) mutants exhibit decreases in seed InsP₆with corresponding increases in inorganic P which, unlike phytic acid P, is readily utilized by humans and monogastric animals. Since InsP₆may also reduce the bioavailability of essential mineral cations, development of lpa seed crops f...
