The biochemical chain responsible for starch synthesis involves glucose molecules produced in plant cells by photosynthesis. starch is formed in the chloroplasts of green leaves and amyloplasts, organelles responsible for the starch reserve synthesis of cereals and tubers (Smith, 2001; Tester et al., 2004). starch production in the chloroplast is diurnal and performed rapidly by the plant. Conversely, starch reserves produced by amyloplasts are deposited over several days, or even weeks.
