Rice endosperm is cost-effective for the production of recombinant griffithsin with potent activity against HIV [PDF]
, 2015 Protein microbicides containing neutralizing antibodies and antiviral lectins may help to reduce the rate of infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) if it is possible to manufacture the components in large quantities at a cost affordable in HIV‐

Probing the endosperm gene expression landscape in
BMC Genomics, 2009 Background In species with exalbuminous seeds, the endosperm is eventually consumed and its space occupied by the embryo during seed development. However, the main constituent of the early developing seed is the liquid endosperm, and a significant ...

Evolution and function of epigenetic processes in the endosperm
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 The endosperm is an ephemeral tissue surrounding the embryo that is essential for its development. Aside from the embryo nourishing function, the endosperm serves as a battlefield for epigenetic processes that have been hypothesized to reinforce ...

Optimization of isolation and transfection conditions of maize endosperm protoplasts
Plant Methods, 2020 Background Endosperm-trait related genes are associated with grain yield or quality in maize. There are vast numbers of these genes whose functions and regulations are still unknown. The biolistic system, which is often used for transient gene expression,

Endosperm sterol phenotype and germination in wheat [PDF]
, 1976 Free and conjugated sterols of endosperm, coats, scutellum, coleoptile and roots have been analysed at different germination stages in two wheat cultivars with different endosperm sterol phenotypes.

Genetic control of sterol esterification in developing wheat endosperm [PDF]
, 1975 1. 1. The action of gene Pln, previously characterized by the sterol ester patterns of mature whole wheat kernels, has been found to be restricted to the endosperm and not to affect the embryo, the pericarp or the seed coat. 2. 2.

The Genotype of the Endosperm and Embryo as It Influences Vivipary in Maize [PDF]
, 1952 The development of the maize seed is dependent on the orderly unfolding of events in which each component of the developing caryopsis has a particular role to play.

Genome-Wide Association Study and Pathway-Level Analysis of Kernel Color in Maize. [PDF]
, 2019 Rapid development and adoption of biofortified, provitamin A-dense orange maize (Zea mays L.) varieties could be facilitated by a greater understanding of the natural variation underlying kernel color, including as it relates to carotenoid biosynthesis ...

Reticulon proteins modulate autophagy of the endoplasmic reticulum in maize endosperm
eLife, 2020 Reticulon (Rtn) proteins shape tubular domains of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and in some cases are autophagy receptors for selective ER turnover. We have found that maize Rtn1 and Rtn2 control ER homeostasis and autophagic flux in endosperm aleurone
