text ADP-glucose from the cytosol is transported to the amyloplast by the ADP-glucose transporter encoded by the rice Brittle1 (OsBT1) gene. OsBT1 is expressed specifically in the developing endosperm. OsBT1-coded protein localizes in the amyloplast envelope membrane (Li et al., 2017). The rice osbt1 mutant shows a white-core endosperm with a lower grain weight due to defects in the formation of compound starch granules (Li et al., 2017).
