Abstract: The article presents a research on the impact of starch bioengineering on cereal grain germination and seedling establishment as of 2014. The topics discussed include role of seed germination in plant propagation, role of starch granule structure in germination of seeds, and degradation of beta glucan in hyperphosphorylated (HP) starch.
