Molecular Regulation of Starch Metabolism
Starch is the main storage carbohydrate in plants. Thus, when photosynthesis is inactive, plants are sprouting, and seeds are germinating, starch... -
Starch Metabolism under Heat Stress
Heat stress (HS) is an important abiotic stress which created challenges for the agricultural sector. It is a key barrier; pose one of the most... -
Allelic variation in the autotetraploid potato: genes involved in starch and steroidal glycoalkaloid metabolism as a case study
BackgroundTuber starch and steroidal glycoalkaloid (SGA)-related traits have been consistently prioritized in potato breeding, while allelic...

Metabolism of Storage Carbohydrates
Besides playing other roles, carbohydrates are also the major source of energy for all living beings. Almost 30% of the carbohydrates in plants are... -
Different dietary starch patterns in low-protein diets: effect on nitrogen efficiency, nutrient metabolism, and intestinal flora in growing pigs
BackgroundProtein releases amino acids faster than starch releases glucose in digestive tract of pigs fed low-protein (LP) diets. Poor...
