## Abstract The protein and amino acid composition of maize grain from four Wisconsin singleβcross hybrids grown on plots treated with 200 kg/ha of N or 200 kg/ha of N and 278 kg/ha of K fertiliser was determined. The yield increase due to N fertiliser was large, but K increased the yield of only o
The aspartate-derived amino-acid pathway leads to the production of the essential amino-acids lysine, methionine, threonine and isoleucine. Aspartate kinase (AK) is the first enzyme in this pathway and exists in isoforms that are feedback inhibited by lysine and threonine. Two maize (Zea mays L.) th
Endosperm protein mutants in rice may be recovered by biochemical selections with inhibitory levels of lysine and threonine. Among the phenotypes recovered from in vitro selections are lines with increased protein and percent lysine in the protein. This work was designed to identify changes in prote
