Abstract

Summary: Two mutant lines of barley, Risø 17 and Notch‐2, were found to accumulate phytoglycogen in the grain. Like the sugary mutants of maize and rice, these phytoglycogen‐accumulating mutants of barley lack isoamylase activity in the developing endosperm. The mutants were shown to be allelic, and to have lesions in the isoamylase gene, isa1 that account for the absence of this enzyme. As well as causing a reduction in endosperm starch content, the mutations have a profound effect on the structure, number and timing of initiation of starch granules. There are no normal A‐type or B‐type granules in the mutants. The mutants have a greater number of starch granules per plastid than the wild‐type and, particularly in Risø 17, this leads to the appearance of compound starch granules. These results suggest that, as well as suppressing phytoglycogen synthesis, isoamylase in the wild‐type endosperm plays a role in determining the number, and hence the form, of starch granules.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
