Genetic Dissection and Functional Differentiation of ALK a and ALK b , Two Natural Alleles of the ALK/SSIIa Gene, Responding to Low Gelatinization Temperature in Rice

Abstract Background ALK is the key gene controlling rice gelatinization temperature (GT), which is closely associated with the eating and cooking quality (ECQ) in rice (Oryza sativa L.). To date, at least three ALK alleles are thought to be responsible for the diversity of GT among rice cultivars. T...
