Abscisic acid-enhanced starch accumulation of bioenergy crop duckweed (Spirodela polyrrhiza)
Keyword(s):
This study demonstrates that abscisic acid (ABA) induced enhanced starch accumulation in duckweed Spirodela polyrrhiza. ABA up-regulates the expression of the APL2 gene which enhances the AGPase activity and results in larger and more starch granules in the duckweed fronds.
