Abstract
The activity of starch synthetase in amyloplasts from barley endosperm was measured. The relative effectiveness of UDPG and ADPG as glucosyl donors was determined, and correlated with amyloplast age. Only UDPG linked synthesis could be detected up to about 12 days after anthesis. After this time ADPG was the main glucosyl donor.
