malfunction	in glasshouse pot trials, enzyme down-regulation leads to a 29% increase in grain yield while in glasshouse tub trials simulating field row spacing and canopy development, enzyme down-regulation results in a grain yield increase of 26%. Decreased activity of the enzyme is correlated with an increase in alpha-amylase activity	Triticum aestivum
metabolism	primary enzyme required for starch phosphorylation	Triticum aestivum
