grain sucrose content between WT and flo7, but
thereafter the sucrose content of the mutant grains was
consistently higher than that of WT grains (Fig. 2-B).
With respect to amylose content, gel consistency and
hardness, flo7 grains were significantly lower than
WT grains, however, alkali value of flo7 grains was
higher and the total protein content was similar in
grains of the mutant and WT (Table 4).
