Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Increase in Lysine Content of Waxy Maize through the Introgression of the <i>opaque2</i> Allele

The <i>opaque2</i> (<i>o2</i>) mutation in maize is associated with high lysine content in endosperm and good nutritional value. To improve the nutritional quality of waxy maize, the <i>o2</i> allele was introgressed into the <i>wxwx</i> line using mar...
