A genetic locus involved in sugar sensing and coordinating carbohydrate synthesis and utilization by the whole plant. Lines carrying mutations in this gene shows restricted carbohydrate allocation to plant growth and seed set, elevated chlorophyll levels, and reduced sugar induction of starch biosynthesis.
