Abstract
Three rice varieties underwent the field natural extreme high temperature (EHT) with daily average temperature over 30 °C from 21 to 89 days after sowing, and had transparent, chalky and floury grains. The structures, gelatinization properties and enzyme hydrolyses of starches from transparent and floury grains were investigated. Compared with control transparent grains, floury grains subjected to EHT markedly decreased the contents of amylose molecules, amylopectin A chains and amylopectin B1 chains and increased the contents of amylopectin B2 and B3+ chains and the average branch-chain length of amylopectin. Both transparent and floury grains had A-type starches, but floury grain starches exhibited higher relative crystallinity, gelatinization temperature, retrogradation and pasting viscosities than transparent grain starches. Floury grain starches had lower hydrolysis rates than transparent grain starches. Native starches were more resistant to digestion but gelatinized and retrograded starches were more prone to digestion in floury grains than in transparent grains.

Abstract
Natural resistant starch (RS) in rice provides human health benefits, and its concentration in rice is influenced by the structure and physicochemical properties of starch. The native starch structures and physicochemical properties of three rice varieties, QR, BR58, and BR50, and their relationships to in vitro digestibility were studied. The starch granules in all three varieties were irregular or polyhedral in shape. There were a few oval granules and a few pinhole structures in QR, no oval granules but a higher number of pinholes in BR58, and no oval granules and pinholes in BR50. QR is a low-amylose (13.8 %), low-RS (0.2 %) variety. BR58 is a low-amylose (15.3 %), high-RS (6.5 %) variety. BR50 is a high-amylose (26.7 %), high-RS (8.3 %) variety. All three starches exhibited typical A-type diffraction patterns. Starch molecular weight, chain length distribution, starch branching degree, pasting capabilities, and thermal properties differed considerably between the rice starches. The RS contents of the rice starch varieties were positively correlated with AAC, Mw/Mn, Mz/Mn, peak 3, B, PTime, and Tp and negatively correlated with Mn, peak 2, DB, PV, and BD, according to Pearson's correlation analysis. These findings may be helpful for the breeding and development of high-RS rice varieties.

Abstract
Starch provides approximately half of humans' food energy, and its structural features influence human health. The most important structural feature is the chain length distribution (CLD), which affects properties such as the digestibility of starch-containing foods. The rate of digestion of such foods has a strong correlation with the prevalence and treatment of diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity. Starch CLDs can be divided into multiple regions of degrees of polymerization, wherein the CLD in a given region is predominantly, but not exclusively, formed by a particular set of starch biosynthesis enzymes: starch synthases, starch branching enzymes and debranching enzymes. Biosynthesis-based models have been developed relating the ratios of the various enzyme activities in each set to the CLD component produced by that set. Fitting the observed CLDs to these models yields a small number of biosynthesis-related parameters, which, taken together, describe the entire CLD. This review highlights how CLDs can be measured and how the model-based parameters obtained from fitting these distributions are related to the properties of starch-based foods significant for health, and it considers how this knowledge could be used to develop plant varieties to provide foods with improved properties.

Abstract
Rice flour (RF) has become a promising food material. In the present study, RF with higher protein content was prepared using a granular starch hydrolyzing enzyme (GSHE). Particle size, morphology, crystallinity, and molecular structures of RF and rice starch (RS) were characterized to establish a hydrolytic mechanism; thermal, pasting, and rheological properties were determined to evaluate processability using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), rapid viscosity analysis (RVA), and rheometer, respectively. The GSHE treatment resulted in pinholes, pits, and surface erosion through sequential hydrolysis of crystalline and amorphous areas on the starch granule surface. The amylose content decreased with hydrolysis time, while the very short chains (DP < 6) increased rapidly at 3 h but decreased slightly later. After hydrolysis for 24 h, the protein content in RF increased from 8.52% to 13.17%. However, the processability of RF was properly maintained. Specifically, the data from DSC showed that the conclusion temperature and endothermic enthalpy of RS barely changed. The result of rapid RVA and rheological measurement indicated that RF paste viscosity and viscoelastic properties dropped rapidly after 1 h hydrolysis and thereafter recovered slightly. This study provided a new RF raw material useful for improving and developing RF-based foods.

Nitrogen fertilizer affects starch synthesis to define non-waxy and waxy proso millet quality. Carbohydr Polym 2023; 302:120423.

Abstract
Understanding the effect of nitrogen fertilization on the quality of proso millet is key to expanding the use of this crop to address water scarcity and food security. Therefore, this study determined the impact of nitrogen fertilization on the proso millet quality. Nitrogen fertilization significantly increased the NR and GS activities and decreased the GBSSase activity, resulting in an increase in protein content and reduction in amylose content and L*, which decreased the appearance quality. Nitrogen fertilization increased the proportion of short amylopectin chains, resulting in a more disordered carbohydrate structure, and decreased the proportion of hydrophilic functional groups, contributing to an increase in setback viscosity and decrease in pasting temperature in the waxy (w139) variety. In contrast, the non-waxy (n297) variety exhibited a larger proportion of long amylopectin chains, lower ordered structure and hydrophobic functional groups after nitrogen fertilization, which strengthened the inter- and intramolecular forces of starch colloids.

Abstract
Development of whole rice with low glycaemic index has been achieved, however, these rices are frequently associated with a poor texture property. Recent advances in terms of understanding the importance of starch fine molecular structures on the starch digestibility/texture of cooked whole rice have shed new insights on mechanisms of starch digestibility and texture from molecular levels. With an extensive discussion on the correlative and causal relationships among starch molecular structure, texture and starch digestibility of cooked whole rice, this review identified desirable starch fine molecular structures contributing to both slow starch digestibility and preferable textures. For instance, the selection of rice variety having more amylopectin intermediate chains while less amylopectin long chains might help develop cooked whole rice with both slower starch digestibility and softer texture. The information could help rice industry transform cooked whole rice into a healthier food product with slow starch digestibility and desirable texture.

Abstract
High temperature (HT) during grain filling had adverse influences on starch synthesis. In this study, the influences of HT on resistant starch (RS) formation in rice were investigated. Most genes in ssIIIa mutants especially in RS4 were upregulated under Normal Temperature (NT) while downregulated under HT when compared with those of wild parent R7954. ssIIIa mutants had higher RS content, more lipid accumulation, higher proportion of short chains of DP 9-15, and less long chains of DP ≥37. ssIIIa mutation exacerbated the influences of HT on starch metabolite and caused larger declines in the expression of BEI, BEIIa, BEIIb, and SSIVb when exposed to HT. HT reduced the contents of total starch and apparent amylose significantly in wild type but not in mutants. Meanwhile, lipids were enriched in all varieties, but the amounts of starch-lipid complexes and the RS content were only heightened in mutants under HT. HT led to greatest declines in the amount of DP 9-15 and increases in the proportion of fb3 (DP ≥37); the declines and increases were all larger in mutants, which resulted in varied starch crystallinity. The increased long-chain amylopectin and lipids may be the major contributor for the elevated RS content in mutants under HT through forming more starch-lipid complexes (RSV).

Abstract
Rice is the main staple food for a large population around the world, while it generally has a high glycemic index and low resistant starch (RS) content. Although many strategies have been applied to develop healthier rice products with increased RS contents, their actual effects on gut microbiota and human health remain elusive. In this review, currently available production methods of rice RS are briefly summarized, followed by a critical discussion on their interactions with gut microbiota and subsequent effects on human health, from correlation implications to causal mechanisms. Different contents, types, and structures of RS have been produced by strategies such as genetic manipulation and controlling cooking conditions. The difference can largely determine effects of rice RS on gut microbiota composition and metabolites by specific RS-gut microbiota interactions. This review can thus help the rice industry develop rice products with desirable RS contents and structures to generally improve human health.

Abstract
The improvement of the cooking and eating quality (CEQ) of rice is one of the major objectives of current rice-breeding programs. A few major genes such as Waxy (Wx) and starch synthase IIa (SSIIa) have been successfully applied in molecular breeding. However, their interactive effects on CEQ have not been fully understood. In this study, a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population was constructed by crossing the white-core mutant GM645 with the transparent phenotype of the japonica rice variety Tainung 67 (TN67). GM645 and TN67 contain different alleles of FLOURY ENDOSPERM2 (FLO2), Wx, and SSIIa. The effects of different allele combinations of FLO2, Wx, and SSIIa on the CEQ of rice were investigated. The inbred lines with the mutation allele flo2 had a significantly lower apparent amylose content (AAC), viscosity characteristics except for setback (SB), and gel texture properties compared to those lines with the FLO2 allele. The allelic combination of FLO2 and Wx significantly affected the AAC, breakdown (BD), and gel textural properties, which could explain most of the variations in those rice quality traits that were correlated with AAC. The allelic combination of FLO2 and SSIIa significantly affected the hot paste viscosity (HPV) and pasting temperature (PT). The Wx × SSIIa interaction had a significant effect on the PT. The interaction of FLO2, Wx and SSIIa significantly affected the AAC, cold paste viscosity (CPV), PT, and consistency viscosity (CS). These results highlight the important roles of these quality-related genes in regulating the CEQ of rice and provide new clues for rice-quality improvement by marker-assisted selection.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the changes in polished rice composition, starch structure, and physicochemical properties from three rice cultivars treated with medium and high salinity stress at the reproductive growth stage. The results showed that salt stress led to poor milling and appearance quality, higher total starch content, protein content, higher proportion of the medium, and long chains of amylopectin, as well as gelatinization temperature (GT) but lower amylose content and lower proportion of the short chain of amylopectin. Compared with salt-sensitive cultivars, the salt-tolerant cultivars exhibited lower GT and gelatinization enthalpy, better pasting properties, and more stable crystal structure; therefore, their eating and cooking quality (ECQ) was less affected. The above results imply that salt stress at the reproductive growth stage can degrade ECQ and can slightly increase the pasting property of starch from salt-tolerant rice cultivar.

Abstract
To determine the changes in the quality of rice during storage, this study investigated the comprehensive metabolomic profiles of Nanjing 9108 (typical japonica rice) and Jianzhen 2 (typical indica rice) varieties in China, using metabolomics. A total of 13 categories of 593 metabolites including lipids (134 species), phenolic acids (78 species), flavonoids (70 species), alkaloids (67 species), organic acids (64 species), amino acids and derivatives (64 species), saccharides and alcohols (44 species), nucleotides and derivatives (37 species), vitamins (14 species), lignans and coumarins (9 species), tannins (2 species), terpenoids (2 species), and others (8 species) were identified in both varieties. The result showed significant changes in 204 metabolites in Nanjing 9108, while only 26 were altered in Jianzhen 2 during storage. These metabolites involved 46 metabolic pathways. The TCA cycle, linoleic, and α-linolenic acid metabolic pathways were unique in Nanjing 9108. Finally, the results of quantitative mass spectrometry of 11 metabolites provided insight into biomarkers associated with quality deterioration of rice. This study provides insights into the mechanism of deterioration in the quality of rice during storage.

Abstract
Rice endosperm accumulates large amounts of photosynthetic products as insoluble starch within amyloplasts by properly arranging structured, highly branched, large amylopectin molecules, thus avoiding osmotic imbalance. The amount and characteristics of starch directly influence the yield and quality of rice grains, which in turn influence their application and market value. Therefore, understanding how various allelic combinations of starch biosynthetic genes, with different expression levels, affect starch properties is important for the identification of targets for breeding new rice cultivars. Research over the past few decades has revealed the spatiotemporal expression patterns and allelic variants of starch biosynthetic genes, and enhanced our understanding of the specific roles and compensatory functions of individual isozymes of starch biosynthetic enzymes through biochemical analyses of purified enzymes and characterization of japonica rice mutants lacking these enzymes. Furthermore, it has been shown that starch biosynthetic enzymes can mutually and synergistically increase their activities by forming protein complexes. This review focuses on the more recent discoveries made in the last several years. Generation of single and double mutants and/or high-level expression of specific starch synthases (SSs) allowed us to better understand how the starch granule morphology is determined; how the complete absence of SSIIa affects starch structure; why the rice endosperm stores insoluble starch rather than soluble phytoglycogen; how to elevate amylose and resistant starch (RS) content to improve health benefits; and how SS isozymes mutually complement their activities. The introduction of active-type SSIIa and/or high-expression type GBSSI into ss3a ss4b, isa1, be2b, and ss3a be2b japonica rice mutants, with unique starch properties, and analyses of their starch properties are summarized in this review. High-level accumulation of RS is often accompanied by a reduction in grain yield as a trade-off. Backcrossing rice mutants with a high-yielding elite rice cultivar enabled the improvement of agricultural traits, while maintaining high RS levels. Designing starch structures for additional values, breeding and cultivating to increase yield will enable the development of a new type of rice starch that can be used in a wide variety of applications, and that can contribute to food and agricultural industries in the near future.

Abstract
Starch biosynthesis is controlled by multiple enzymes, including granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI), soluble starch synthases (SSs), branching enzymes (BEs), and debranching enzymes (DBEs). Although the role of individual isoforms has been primarily elucidated, the precise information about how they work together in the synthesis of specific amylose and amylopectin chains is still unclear. In this study, starch molecular chain-length distributions (CLDs) of five rice varieties with different amylose contents were measured by fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis and size-exclusion chromatography and fitted with two mathematical models, and the protein abundance of 11 starch synthesis-related enzymes was measured by western blotting. The correlation between model fitting parameters of amylose and amylopectin CLDs demonstrated that amylose and amylopectin syntheses are closely dependent. GBSSI could interact with BEI, BEIIb, SSIIa, SSIVb, ISA1, PUL, and PHO1 to synthesize the amylopectin intermediate and long chains as well as amylose chains. In addition, the interaction among SSIVb and SSI, SSIIa, BEI, BEIIb, ISA1, and PUL possibly suggests that SSIVb assists them to synthesize the amylopectin chains. The results can help understand the mechanisms about the functional interaction of different enzyme isoforms in starch biosynthesis.

J Food Biochem 2022; 46:e14066. [PMID: 34984696 DOI: 10.1111/jfbc.14066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2021] [Revised: 11/26/2021] [Accepted: 12/13/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
To promote the reduction and efficiency of chemical fertilizers in rice production, two hybrid rice varieties with different amylose contents (16.43% and 27.58%) were selected to study the yield and quality performance of different quality rice varieties under reduced nitrogen/phosphorus conditions. Thus, the specific mechanism of the long-term nitrogen/phosphorus reduction effect on the quality of low- and high-amylose content (16.43% and 27.58%) rice was investigated by comparative analyses of the rapid visco analyzer and X-ray diffraction patterns, amylose contents, and starch structures of the samples. The results revealed that the effect of nitrogen fertilizer on the quality and yield of the hybrid rice was greater than that of phosphorus fertilizer. Indeed, reducing the former increased the Wx gene expression and amylose content of the rice varieties. Moreover, it reduced the starch crystallinity of Yixiangyou 1108 (2.16%), increasing the space between the starch grains and thus, chalkiness. Reducing nitrogen/phosphorus application did not significantly affect the yield and quality of the high-amylose rice but affected that of the high-quality rice with lower amylose contents. Thus, for high-amylose rice created for processing, appropriate chemical fertilizer reduction will not affect their yield and processing demand. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Fertilization with different nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers will seriously affect rice quality. The rice varieties with low amylose content (AC) could produce high taste quality rice by increasing nitrogen fertilizer and decreasing phosphorus fertilizer. The rice varieties with relatively high ACs should reduce the application of nitrogen/phosphorus fertilizer to appropriately increase AC, which can be used to produce healthy food with high resistant starch.

Abstract
There are many genetic differences between Australian wild rices (AWRs) and domesticated rices (DRs), causing differences in starch molecular structure and starch-related functional properties; these are examined here for polished AWRs and polished DRs. Starch structural parameters for amylopectin and amylose were obtained using size-exclusion chromatography, with and without enzymatic debranching. Thermal properties of starch, in-vitro digestibility and texture of three AWRs were measured and compared to those of typical DRs. The results showed that AWR starches had (a) higher amylose content than most DRs, resulting in a higher gelatinization temperature, (b) fewer amylopectin short chains, causing a higher gelatinization enthalpy, and (c) more amylose shorter chains and more amylopectin longer chains, both causing a slower in-vitro digestion rate. The textural characteristics of AWRs are not significantly different from those of DRs. These findings suggest that AWRs are a potential source of nutritionally-desirable but palatable slowly-digestible starch.

Abstract
The main enzymes controlling the chain-length distributions (CLDs) of starches are starch synthases (SSs), starch branching enzymes (SBEs), and debranching enzymes (DBEs), which have various isoforms, denoted as SSI, SSII-1, etc. Different isozymes dominate the CLD in different ranges of degrees of polymerization (DPs). Models have been developed for the CLDs in terms of the activities of isoforms of these enzymes, in terms of two parameters: βi, which is the ratio of the activity of SBE to that of SS in set i, and hi, which is the relative activity of SS in that set. These provide good fits to data but without specifying which isozymes are in set i. Here, CLDs for amylopectin and amylose synthesis in rice endosperm are explored. Molecular weight distributions of the different chains formed in 87 rice varieties were obtained using size-exclusion chromatography following enzymatic debranching (converting a complex branched macromolecule to linear polymers), and fitted by the biosynthesis-based models. The mutants of each isoform among tested rice varieties were identified by amino-acid mutations in coding sequences based on the extraction and analysis of whole gene sequences. The significant differences between mutant groups of different isoforms indicate that SSI, SSII-3, SSIII-1, SSIII-2, and SBEI as well as GBSSI (an isozyme of granule-bound starch synthase) belong to the enzymes sets that control amylose biosynthesis. Further, GBSSI is in the enzyme sets that control amylopectin chains. This enables specification of all isozymes and the DP range, which they dominate, over the entire DP range. As the CLD controls many functional properties of rice, this can help breeders target and develop improved rice species.

Abstract
The molecular structure and the expression levels of starch biosynthesis-related genes of three types of high-amylose maize (HAM) genotypes and one normal maize (NM) genotype at 5-35 days after pollination (DAP) were studied. Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) analysis showed that the molecular size of amylopectin molecules in NM increased from 5 to 35 DAP and the amylose content in HAM genotypes increased from 15 to 35 DAP. Correlation analysis for both NM and HAMs combined showed that SBEIIb and ISAII were negatively correlated with the contents of amylose and long amylopectin chains (DP > 30) and positively correlated with the content of short amylopectin chains (DP ≤ 31) and the molecular size of amylopectin molecules. Correlation analysis for only the HAMs showed that amylose content was negatively correlated with SBEI and SSIIa. In both correlation analyses, SSIIa showed a negative correlation with the average chain lengths of amylose chains.

Abstract
Chalkiness is a major concern in rice production and its acceptance and is increased by shade stress. However, the relationship between rice chalkiness and the structural and thermal properties of starch is unclear. Here, we investigated the effect of shade stress on rice starch properties. The chalky grain rate and chalkiness degree significantly decreased with the amylose content, Mn, and ΔH and increased with surface area- and volume-weighted mean diameters, branching degree, ratio of 1022/995 cm-1, and molecular weight polydispersity. Shade stress significantly increased the volume- and surface area-weighted mean diameters and Mw and decreased the amylose content, A chain proportion of amylopectin, Mn, and regularity of starch. These effects led to an increase in the molecular weight polydispersity and branching degree and a decrease in the crystallinity degree and 1045/1022 cm-1 ratio, thereby reducing starch ΔH and uniformity. These factors contributed to increased chalkiness of rice under shade stress.
