GIF1 Gene: Key To High-Yield Rice
http://www.biotech-weblog.com/ 50226711/ gif1_gene_key_to_highyield_rice.phpA gene in rice that controls the size and weight of rice grains has been identified, and may thus be useful for breeding high-yield rice. "The GIF1 gene is responsible for controlling the activity of the enzyme invertase, which is located in the cell wall and converts sucrose to substances that then are used to create starch.
