Metabolism of Phytic Acid in Pollen of Lilium Longiflorum Thunb. And Mathematical Modeling of Wall Polysaccharide Formation During Pollen Tube Growth (Phytase, Simulation)
Abstract
dc:descriptionPhytic acid metabolism in seeds has been studied extensively, however, literature about phytic acid metabolism in pollen is limited. The accumulation of phytic acid during development of lily pollen and its degradation during germination and tube growth were studied. Phytase which is responsible for phytic acid breakdown was isolated from ungerminated and germinated lily pollen and was characterized and partially purified.
