physiological function | construction of double mutants defective in isoforms SSI and SSIIIa. In the F2 generation, two opaque seed types were found to have either the ss1ss1/SS3ass3a or the SS1ss1/ss3ass3a genotype. The endosperm of the two types of opaque seeds displays lower starch synthase activity and contains the unique starch with modified fine structure, round-shaped starch granules, high amylose content, and specific physicochemical properties. The seed weight is about 90% of that of the wild type. The amount of granule-bound starch synthase I and the activity of ADP-glucose diphosphorylase are higher than in the wild type and parent mutant lines. The double-recessive homozygous mutant prepared from both ss1 and ss3a null mutants is considered sterile, while the mutant produced by the leaky ss1 mutant with the ss3a null mutant is fertile | Oryza sativa |
