Data confidence 70 medium

How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The participation of various isoenzymes of alpha-amylase in the formation of falling number values of the commodity grain of wheat grown in the Republic of Kazakhstan was investigated. It was found that active isoenzymes alpha-AMY1 and alpha-AMY2 of the embryonic shield were present in the grain with an index over 200. A significant decrease in the falling number depended mainly on the synthesis of alpha-AMY1 and alpha-AMY2 isoenzymes in the aleurone layer. In the grain, isoenzymes with high isoelectric points (p1 > or = 7.3) were found; these isoenzymes belong to alpha-amylase or late maturing or alpha-amylase of practically mature grains. It was discovered that the exogenous hormone (gibberellic acid) induced synthesis of alpha-amylase isoenzymes of scutellum, whole caryopses, and aleurone. It was shown that the impact of exogenous gibberellic acid on the activity and structure of alpha-amylase is reduced in grain with a low falling number.
