The goal of this project was the elucidation of the pathway of starch biosynthesis in the developing maize endosperm with mutants affecting the process constituting the experimental probes. Studies involving a total of seven different loci were undertaken, with a concentration on four of these. The four studies focus on the following: brittle endosperm1 (bt1); brittle endosperm2 (bt2); phosphoglucomutase (pgm); and sugary3 (su3).
