Shrunken-2 mutant

Enzymes Involved in Starch Biosynthesis. Much of the eady data dealing with starch biosynthesis in plants are derived from the study of various mutants. The shrunken-2 and britde-2 mutants of maize have gready reduced levels of ADPGPP activity owing to the absence of one of the two subunits of this enzyme, and result in a shrunken seed appearance. Mendel s eady work on inheritance of traits was performed with a pea mutant deficient in branching enzyme activity (61). Mutations in plants affecting starch biosynthesis can have severe results to plant morphology and viability. [Pg.254]
