Comparative transcriptomics reveals the difference in early endosperm development between maize with different amylose contents [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
In seeds, the endosperm is a crucial organ that plays vital roles in supporting embryo development and determining seed weight and quality. Starch is the predominant storage carbohydrate of the endosperm and accounts for ∼70% of the mature maize kernel ...

NTRC Plays a Crucial Role in Starch Metabolism, Redox Balance, and Tomato Fruit Growth [PDF]

, 2019
NADPH-thioredoxin reductase C (NTRC) forms a separate thiol-reduction cascade in plastids, combining both NADPHthioredoxin reductase and thioredoxin activities on a single polypeptide.

Constitutive expression of SlTrxF increases starch content in transgenic Arabidopsis

Biologia Plantarum, 2017
The plastidic thioredoxin F-type (TrxF) protein plays an important role in plant saccharide metabolism. In this study, a gene encoding the TrxF protein, named SlTrxF, was isolated from tomato.
