Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation The pkp1 mutant accumulated less storage oil than wild type.
- Observation The pkp1 mutant had delayed germination and sugar-dependent establishment.
- Observation Germinating pkp1 seeds could not metabolize storage oil.
- Observation Germinating pkp1 seeds could not use applied sucrose for dark hypocotyl elongation.
- Observation pkp1 had less tocopherol and chlorophyll than wild type.
- Mechanism Authors propose PK(p) is required for efficient conversion of sugar into anabolic precursors.
