The α-amylase activities of Nipponbare and Koshihikari seeds. a The α-amylase in the endosperm of Nipponbare and Koshihikari seeds degrades the starch in the agar plates and thus can be detected as white spots in a dark background after the plates are stained with 0.1 % iodine and 1 % potassium iodide solution for 3 days at 28 °C. In addition to starch, the plates also contained 10 μM ABA and 1 mM GA3. b The graph of α-amylase activity in Nipponbare and Koshihikari (n = 40). This experiment was repeated at least 3 times
