Sucrose Synthase Enhances Hull Size and Grain Weight by Regulating Cell Division and Starch Accumulation in Transgenic Rice

Sucrose Synthase Enhances Hull Size and Grain Weight by Regulating Cell Division and Starch Accumulation in Transgenic Rice

Grain size and weight are two important determinants of grain yield in rice. Although overexpression of sucrose synthase (<i>SUS</i>) genes has led to several improvements on cellulose and starch-based traits in transgenic crops, little is reported about <i>SUS</i> enhancemen...
