A Major Locus on Wheat Chromosome 7B Associated With Late-Maturity α-Amylase Encodes a Putative ent-Copalyl Diphosphate Synthase

Many wheat varieties have the potential to develop unacceptably high levels of α-amylase in the grains if exposed to a cool temperature shock or simply cool temperature during the early to middle stages of grain filling. This phenomenon is referred to as late maturity α-amylase (LMA). The enzyme per...
