Final grain weight is not limited by the activity of key starch-synthesising enzymes during grain filling in wheat

Since starch is by far the major component of the mature wheat grain, it has been assumed that variation in the capacity for starch synthesis during grain filling can influence final grain weight. We investigated this assumption by studying a total of 54 wheat genotypes including elite varieties and...
