A soluble starch synthase I gene, IbSSI, alters the content, composition, granule size and structure of starch in transgenic sweet potato

Scientific Reports, 2017
Soluble starch synthase I (SSI) is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of plant amylopectin. In this study, the gene named IbSSI, was cloned from sweet potato, an important starch crop. A high expression level of IbSSI was detected in the leaves and storage

Starch Synthase 3 isoforms are essential for normal starch granule initiation in wheat endosperm

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Wheat grains have two distinct types of starch granules. Large, lenticular A‐type granules are formed from a single initiation per amyloplast during early grain development, while numerous small B‐type granules are initiated during later grain development.

Amylopectin content rather than amylose or protein content is critical to determining the starch digestion rate in high-amylose rice

Food Chemistry Advances
The starch digestion properties of cooked rice are associated with the chemical compositions of the rice grain. However, limited information is available on the chemical composition governing starch digestion properties in high-amylose rice.

Strigolactones Regulate Sugar Allocation to Control Rice Tillering and Root Development via the OsSPL14‐OsSHR1‐OsSWEET16 Pathway

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Strigolactones (SLs) are root‐to‐shoot phytohormones that regulate tillering (branching) and root development. Sugar, as an essential energy substance and signalling molecule, plays a fundamental role in the growth and development of plants. However, the molecular mechanisms by which SL directly regulates sugar allocation to control tillering ...
