t0“Rice alcohol dehydrogenase 1 promotes survival and has a major impact on carbohydrate metabolism in the embryo and endosperm when seeds are germinated in partially oxygenated water”
e1“In the rad embryo, the rate of ethanol fermentation was halved, while lactate and alanine concentrations were 2·4- and 5·7- fold higher in the mutant than in the wild type”

Other claims from this paper (7)
- Association In the rad mutant embryo the rate of ethanol fermentation was halved.
- Association Alanine concentrations in the mutant embryo were higher than in the wild type, at 5.7-fold.
- Association Glucose and fructose concentrations in the embryo increased with time in the wild type but not in the rad mutant.
- Association The rad mutant endosperm had lower amounts of the alpha-amylases RAMY1A and RAMY3D.
- Association The rad mutant endosperm had less starch degradation.
- Association The rad mutant endosperm had lower glucose concentrations.
- Mechanism ADH1 is essential for sugar metabolism via glycolysis to ethanol fermentation in both embryo and endosperm.
