TL;DR: It is found that genes related to starch synthesis cooperate with each other to form a fine regulating network that controls the eating and cooking quality and defines the correlation among these three properties.

TL;DR: In this article, an in vitro enzymatic starch digestion method and an AOAC method were applied to correlate rapidly digestible starch (RDS), slowly digestible (SDS), resistant starch (RS), and total dietary fiber (TDF) content with amylose content (AC) in the samples.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that OsbZIP58 functions as a key regulator of starch synthesis in rice seeds and provide new insights into seed quality control.

TL;DR: Genetic interaction analysis reveals that GS9 functions independently from other previously identified grain size genes and suggests potential application of gs9, alone or in combination with other grain size determining genes, in breeding of rice varieties with optimized grain shape.

TL;DR: The results showed that the morphology, granule size, and crystalline type did not significantly change among rice starches, and the swelling power, hydrolysis and in vitro digestion were significantly positively correlated with amylopectin short branch-chain, relative crystallinity, IR ratio of 1045/1022 cm(-1), and lamellar peak intensity but significantly negatively correlated withAmylose content and lameLLar distance.
