Alternative splicing, activation of cryptic exons and amino acid substitutions in carotenoid biosynthetic genes are associated with lutein accumulation in wheat endosperm

Crispin A. Howitt, Colin Cavanagh, +4 authors Barry James Pogson
Functional & Integrative Genomics
2009

Endosperm carotenoid content in wheat is a primary determinant of flour colour and this affects both the nutritional value of the grain and its utility for different applications. Utilising wheat… (More)

Down-regulation of Glucan, Water-Dikinase activity in wheat endosperm increases vegetative biomass and yield.

Jean-Philippe F. Ral, Andrew F. Bowerman, +7 authors Matthew Morell
Plant biotechnology journal
2012

A novel mechanism for increasing vegetative biomass and grain yield has been identified in wheat (Triticum aestivum). RNAi-mediated down-regulation of Glucan, Water-Dikinase (GWD), the primary enzyme… (More)

Engineering α-amylase levels in wheat grain suggests a highly sophisticated level of carbohydrate regulation during development

Alex Whan, Anne-Sophie Dielen, +8 authors J P Ral
Journal of experimental botany
2014

Wheat starch degradation requires the synergistic action of different amylolytic enzymes. Our spatio-temporal study of wheat α-amylases throughout grain development shows that AMY3 is the most… (More)

Suppression of glucan, water dikinase in the endosperm alters wheat grain properties, germination and coleoptile growth.
