Identification of genes encoding granule-bound starch synthase involved in amylose metabolism in banana fruit.
Granule-bound starch synthase (GBSS) is responsible for amylose synthesis, but the role of GBSS genes and their encoded proteins remains poorly understood in banana. In this study, amylose content and GBSS activity gradually increased during development of the banana fruit, and decreased during stor...
