Abstract
The present invention relates to a barley plant having high α-amylase activity and rapid β-glucan degradation during malt formation. The barley plant of the present invention may have, for example, a point mutation in the CXE2L1 gene, the mutated CXE2L1 gene encoding a mutant CXE2L1 polypeptide. The present invention further provides plant products prepared from the barley plant.
