Comparison of the fine structure and physicochemical properties of proso millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) starch from different ecological regions. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 249:126115. [PMID: 37541463 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126115] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2023] [Revised: 06/26/2023] [Accepted: 08/01/2023] [Indexed: 08/06/2023]
Abstract
Field experiments were conducted to evaluate the morphology, granule size, fine structure, thermal properties, and pasting properties of starch from a waxy (139) and a non-waxy (297) varieties of proso millet grown in Yulin (YY) and Yangling (YL). Compared with the starches from the two varieties grown in YY, the starches from the two varieties grown in YL exhibited higher relative crystallinities, 1045/1022 cm-1 ratio, and amounts of amylopectin long branch chains (APL) but lower 1022/995 cm -1 ratio, amounts of amylopectin short branch chains (APs), and APs/APL ratios. Starches from YL also synthesized long branch-chain amylopectin to enhance intermolecular interactions and form a stable granular structure, which resulted in increased starch gelatinization temperature, enhanced shear resistance, and reduced setback viscosity. Starch from the waxy (139) variety has good application prospects in the food industry because of its high gelatinization temperature and light transmittance and low setback value, which can be ascribed to its extremely low amylose content, polydispersity index, high molecular weight, and dispersed molecular density. It may serve as a reference for applying proso millet starches in the food industry and developing breeding programs to improve starch quality.

Abstract
Rice is one of the most important staple plant foods that provide a major source of calories and nutrients for tackling the global hunger index especially in developing countries. In terms of nutritional profile, pigmented rice grains are favoured for their nutritional and health benefits. The pigmented rice varieties are rich sources of flavonoids, anthocyanin and proanthocyanidin that can be readily incorporated into diets to help address various lifestyle diseases. However, the cultivation of pigmented rice is limited due to low productivity and unfavourable cooking qualities. With the advances in genome sequencing, molecular breeding, gene expression analysis and multi-omics approaches, various attempts have been made to explore the genetic architecture of rice grain pigmentation. In this review, we have compiled the current state of knowledge of the genetic architecture and nutritional value of pigmentation in rice based upon the available experimental evidence. Future research areas that can help to deepen our understanding and help in harnessing the economic and health benefits of pigmented rice are also explored.

Carbohydr Polym 2023; 307:120606. [PMID: 36781271 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.120606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2022] [Revised: 01/07/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
To obtain the relation between rice starch features and fermentation characteristics, rice starches with various polymorphic types and apparent amylose contents were subjected to in vitro fecal fermentation. Gas and short-chain fatty acid production was evaluated as a function of fermentation time, and the microbial responses were monitored by 16S rRNA sequencing technique at the end of fermentation. Regardless of polymorphic type, three high-amylose mutant rice starches (i.e., GM03, A-type; BP577, B-type; Wx21TT, C-type) displayed significantly slower fermentation rate during the first 12 h and higher final butyrate yield (17.6-17.9 mM) compared to the A-type normal starches (9311 and Wx22TT), and promoted the proliferation of Roseburia. However, A-type normal rice starches presented higher propionate production, and increased the growth of Bacteroides and Megamonas. The principal component and redundancy analyses indicated that three high-amylose mutant rice starches showed similar abundance and migration of microbial communities, and the apparent amylose content was closely correlated with the abundance of their five key amplicon sequence variants. Our results demonstrated that amylose content might be a controlling factor in determining the fermentation properties of rice starches than crystalline structure.

PLANT SCIENCE : AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL PLANT BIOLOGY 2023; 328:111567.

Abstract
A chalky endosperm mutant (GM03) induced from an indica rice GLA4 was used to investigate the functional gene in starch biosynthesis. Bulked segregant analysis and sanger sequencing determined that a novel mutation in soluble starch synthase IIIa (SSIIIa) is responsible for the chalky phenotype in GM03. Complementary test by transforming the active SSIIIa gene driven by its native promoter to GM03 recovered the phenotype to its wildtype. The expression of SSIIIa was significantly decreased, while SSIIIa protein was not detected in GM03. The mutation of SSIIIa led to increased expression of most of starch synthesis related genes and elevated the levels of most of proteins in GM03. The CRISPR/Cas9 technology was used for targeted disruption of SSIIIa, and the mutant lines exhibited chalky endosperm which phenocopied the GM03. Additionally, the starch fine structure in the knockout mutant lines ss3a-1 and ss3a-2 was similar with the GM03, which showed increased amylose content, higher proportions of B1 and B2 chains, much lower proportions of B3 chains and decreased degree of crystallinity, leading to altered thermal properties with lower gelatinization temperature and enthalpy. Collectively, these results suggested that SSIIIa plays an important role in starch synthesis by elongating amylopectin long chains in rice.

Abstract
D. alata is an important edible and medicinal plant in China. Its tuber is rich in starch but the understanding of the physiochemical properties of D. alata starch is limited. In order to explore the processing and application potential of different D. alata accessions in China, five kinds of D. alata starch (LY, WC, XT, GZ, SM) were isolated and characterized. The study showed that D. alata tubers contained abundant starch, enriched in amylose and resistant starch (RS). D. alata starches showed B-type or C-type diffraction pattern, had higher RS content and gelatinization temperature (GT), lower fa and viscosity when compared to D. opposita, D. esculenta, and D. nipponica. Among D. alata starches, D. alata (SM) showing the C-type diffraction pattern, had the lowest proportion of fa with 10.48 %, the highest amylose, RS2 and RS3 content of 40.24 %, 84.17 % and 10.48 % respectively, and the highest GT and viscosity. The results indicated that D. alata tubers are potential sources for novel starch with high amylose and RS content, and provided a theoretical basis for further utilizations of D. alata starch in food processing and industry application.

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
Starch branching enzyme IIb (BEIIb) and soluble starch synthase IIa (SSIIa) play important roles in starch biosynthesis in cereals. Deficiency in the BEIIb gene produces the amylose extender (ae) mutant rice strain with increased amylose content (AC) and changes in the amylopectin structure. The SSIIa gene is responsible for the genetic control of gelatinization temperature (GT). The combined effects of BEIIb and SSIIa alleles on the AC, fine structures, and physicochemical properties of starches from 12 rice accessions including 10 recombinant inbred lines (RIL) and their two parents were examined in this study. Under the active BEIIb background, starches with the SSIIa-GC allele showed a higher GT than those with the SSIIa-TT allele, resulting from a lower proportion of A chain and a larger proportion of B1 chains in the amylopectin of SSIIa-GC. However, starch with the BEIIb mutant allele (be2b) in combination with any SSIIa genotype displayed more amylose long chains, higher amylose content, B2 and B3 chains, and molecular order, but smaller relative crystallinity and proportion of amylopectin A and B1 chains than those with BEIIb, leading to a higher GT and lower paste viscosities. These results suggest that BEIIb is more important in determining the structural and physicochemical properties than SSIIa. These results provide additional insights into the structure-function relationship in indica rice rather than that in japonica rice and are useful for breeding rice with high amylose content and high resistant starch.

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
The diurnal changes in the expression profiles of starch synthesis related enzymes (SSREs) has been previously studied in transitory starches, while its influences on storage starch molecular structures in the rice endosperm during seed development have not been elucidated. In this study, the changes in the transcript levels of starch synthesis related genes (SSRGs), the protein abundances and enzyme activities of SSREs as well as starch molecular structures in rice endosperm at 10 days after flowering (DAF) over the diurnal cycle were analyzed. It was found that the expression profiles of SSRG and the protein contents of SSREs displayed different diurnal patterns between two indica rice varieties with medium- and high-amylose content (AC), respectively. The expression levels of SSRGs were higher in the light time, and most SSREs also accumulated during this period except debranching enzymes. Amylose synthesis displayed distinct diurnal patterns in two rice varieties, which is attributed to the diurnal changes in the protein content of granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI), but amylopectin chain-length distributions (CLDs) remained unaltered due to its vast numbers of branches. The results provide the first step to understand the roles of each enzyme isoform involved in starch synthesis in response to diurnal regulation in rice endosperm.

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.

Abstract
The chain reorganization of cooked starch during storage plays an important role in the performance of starchy products such as rice foods. Here, different analytical techniques (such as small-angle X-ray scattering) were used to reveal how microwave cooking influences the chain assembly of cooked indica rice starch undergoing storage for 0, 24, or 48 h. While stored, more short-range double helices, long-range crystallites, and nanoscale orders emerged for the microwave-cooked starch than for its conventionally cooked counterpart. For instance, after storage for 24 h, the microwave-cooked starch contained 46.8% of double helices, while its conventionally cooked counterpart possessed 34.3% of double helices. This could be related to the fact that the microwave field caused high-frequency movements of polar groups such as hydroxyls, which strengthened the interactions between starch chains and water molecules and eventually their assembly into double helices, crystallites, and nanoscale orders. This work provides further insights into the chain reassembly of microwave-cooked starch undergoing storage, which is closely related to the quality attributes of starch-based products.
