Aug 24, 2018 · Starch is the predominant reserve form of carbohydrate and energy in plants and can be divided into two types, transitory starch and storage starch, based on biological function. In...

Mar 25, 2024 · Starch is the second-most abundant carbohydrate on earth and an important energy source for human and animal nutrition. Starch mainly consists of amylose (AM) and branched-chain amylopectin (AP) [1, 2, 3].

Jun 6, 2021 · Starch is a major ingredient in rice, and the amylose content of starch significantly impacts rice quality. OsSS (starch synthase) is a gene family related to the synthesis of amylose and amylopectin, and 10 members have been reported.

Sep 26, 2024 · This study investigated the morphological, compositional, and molecular structure properties of starch from starch branching enzyme gene (SBE) and granule-bound starch synthase gene (GBSS) mutated potato, and their associations with thermal, pasting, and film-making properties.

Starch is the predominant reserve form of carbohydrate and energy in plants and can be divided into two types, transitory starch and storage starch, based on biological function. In photosynthetic tissues, transient starches accumulate in chloroplasts during the day.

Desired starch gene haplotypes for the development of slowly digested starch cultivars. Three starch characteristics have been identified as factors contributing to slower starch digestibility in O. meridionalis, that is, high AC, a higher proportion of short amylose chains and a higher proportion of long amylopectin chains.

Apr 1, 2021 · Wheat reserve starch is synthesized by enzymatic machinery in endosperm cells. To identify genes involved in starch biosynthesis, we constructed 30 RNA-Seq libraries of 10 endosperm-development periods and performed expression and localization analyses.

Sep 1, 2023 · In this study, we conducted the comprehensive phylogenetic and structural analysis of three types of starch biosynthetic enzymes: starch synthase (SS), starch branching enzyme (SBE) and isoamylase-type debranching enzyme (ISA) from 51,151 annotated genomes.

3 days ago · Starch is composed of 75% branched amylopectin and 25% linear amylose and contributes substantially to maize grain yield and quality (Yu and Moon 2022).High-amylose corn, namely amylomaize, refers to a specialty maize that has an amylose content greater than 50% and is highly valued-added because of its multiple functionalities in the food and pharmaceutical industries and as a resource for ...

Jan 19, 2025 · Here we discuss new evidence that links auxin with the synthesis and accumulation of one of humanity’s staple food ingredients, starch. In an exciting development, a recent series of papers...
