Morphometrics of Starch Granules From Sub-Saharan Plants and the Taxonomic Identification of Ancient Starch

Morphometrics of Starch Granules From Sub-Saharan Plants and the Taxonomic Identification of Ancient Starch

The assumption that taxonomy can be ascertained by starch granule shape and size has persisted since the late nineteenth and early twentieth century biochemistry. More recent work has established that granule morphological affinity is scattered throughout phylogenetic branches, morphotype proportion...
