Developmental regulation of gene expression during barley endosperm formation.
Journal of Plant Physiology: 1995 145:587-591
Abstract:
This paper reviews recent
data from our laboratories on the early phases of endosperm development
in barley. First, we provide a description of endosperm morphogenesis
based on immunohistochemical studies using the confocal laser scanning
microscope. In the second part, the barley Ltp2 gene, which is
exclusively expressed in the aleurone layer of developing grains, is
characterized. In the last part, we describe the barley gene encoding
the small subunits of the AGPase in the starchy endosperm and leaf
tissue.
