Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Members of one PPO gene cluster are not expressed in developing kernels or senescing flag leaves
- Mechanism Transcriptional regulation of one major PPO gene in the other cluster largely controls PPO levels in kernels and flag leaves
- Observation The PPO gene product is present as a latent enzyme during early kernel development
- Observation The latent PPO enzyme is activated during later developmental phases
- Intervention effect Limited tryptic digestion increased PPO enzyme activation in vitro
