Determinants of resistant starch accumulation in wheat endosperm. [PDF]
Saudi J Biol Sci, 2022 A part of the big three cereal crops in the world, wheat has become a major constituent of the everyday food chain and is grown at a massive scale to meet global demands. This makes it an important crop from an economic as well as food security perspective.

Exogenous 6-benzylaminopurine enhances waterlogging and shading tolerance after anthesis by improving grain starch accumulation and grain filling [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Due to the frequent occurrence of extreme weather events, the area of wheat affected by continuous cloudy rainfall is increasing, with waterlogging becoming a major limiting factor of wheat yield.

Developing the DSSAT-CERES-Millet Model for Dynamic Simulation of Grain Protein and Starch Accumulation in Foxtail Millet (Setaria italica) Under Varying Irrigation and Nitrogen Regimes [PDF]
PlantsFoxtail millet (Setaria italica), vital in northern China, has its quality and taste influenced by starch and protein. Existing models do not simulate the accumulation of these components during growth. To address this, we enhanced the DSSAT-CERES-Millet

Overexpression of the Phosphoserine Phosphatase-Encoding Gene (AtPSP1) Promotes Starch Accumulation in Lemna turionifera 5511 under Sulfur Deficiency [PDF]
Plants, 2023 Duckweeds are well known for their high accumulation of starch under stress conditions, along with inhibited growth. The phosphorylation pathway of serine biosynthesis (PPSB) was reported as playing a vital role in linking the carbon, nitrogen, and ...

Transcriptomic and Metabolic Analysis Reveal Potential Mechanism of Starch Accumulation in Spirodela polyrhiza Under Nutrient Stress [PDF]
PlantsCompared with traditional grain starch sources, duckweed (Spirodela polyrhiza, S. polyrhiza for simple) does not require soil to produce starch, and the process is less affected by the external environment.

Starch accumulation in hulless barley during grain filling. [PDF]
Bot Stud, 2017 Starch consists of two types of molecules: amylose and amylopectin. The objective of this study was increase understanding about mechanisms related to starch accumulation in hulless barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) grain by measuring temporal changes in (i) grain amylose and amylopectin content, (ii) starch synthase activity, and (iii) the relative ...

Developmental dynamics of stem starch accumulation in Sorghum bicolor. [PDF]
Plant Direct, 2018 AbstractSweet sorghums were identified that accumulate up to ~9% of their total stem dry weight as starch. Starch accumulated preferentially in stem pith parenchyma in close proximity to vascular bundles. Stem starch accumulated slowly between floral initiation and anthesis and more rapidly between anthesis and 43 days post‐anthesis before declining in

Improving biomass and starch accumulation of bioenergy crop duckweed (Landoltia punctata) by abscisic acid application [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 Duckweed is a valuable feedstock for bioethanol production due to its high biomass and starch accumulation. In our preliminary experiment, we found that abscisic acid (ABA) could simultaneously increase starch and biomass accumulation of duckweed, but ...
