| Abstract: | cDNA clones encoding squalene synthases were isolated from rice,maize and soybeans. A phylogenetic tree showed that the enzymesof monocots and dicots form distinct subgroups. In rice, squalenesynthase mRNA was detected in tissues containing dividing cellsand its level was repressed by illumination. (Received July 9, 1997; Accepted October 7, 1997) |
