Abstract:Common bean is a legume with high demand for human consumption and with high protein content on its seeds. The seed filling stage is a crucial step to obtain high-quality seeds with a good level of nutrients. For this, it is necessary for a correct communication between the different seed compartments. Nucleotides are essential components with nitrogen and phosphorous on its molecules, and its metabolism in seed development has not been studied in detail. In this manuscript, we have studied nucleotide metaboli… Show more
