Evidence that auxin is required for normal seed size and starch synthesis in pea
EL McAdam, T Meitzel, LJ Quittenden… - New …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
In recent years the biosynthesis of auxin has been clarified with the aid of mutations in auxin
biosynthesis genes. However, we know little about the effects of these mutations on the seed …
