Near isogenic lines (NIL) of sorghum carrying wild type or waxy alleles of the granule-bound starch synthase (GBSS) gene have distinct effects on human gut microbiome phenotypes and host physiological characteristics
2022-03-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Waxy starches contain >90% amylopectin and are derived from grain crops carrying naturally-occurring mutations that block amylose biosynthesis. The absence of amylose in waxy starches produces unique physiochemical properties that are desirable for food processing, but the effects of increased amylopectin/amylose ratios in waxy starches on the gut microbiome and physiological characteristics...
