Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: In rice, five common Wx alleles, wx, Wxt , Wxg1 , Wxg2 and Wxg3 , have been identified according to their apparent amylose content (AAC) phenotypes. Previous studies revealed that this Wx allelic variation may also affect other starch properties. However, so far, to what extent the five Wx alleles influence the crystalline structure, thermal and swelling properties of rice starch is still unclear. For...
