Modification of potato starch granule structure and morphology in planta by expression of starch binding domain fusion proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Producing starches with altered composition, structure and novel physico-chemical properties in planta by manipulating the enzymes which are involved in starch metabolism or (over)expressing heterologous enzymes has huge advantages such as broadening the

Turmeric essential oil‐loaded wheat starch cryogels as superabsorbent pads for active packaging of fish fillets

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND This study aimed to create a cryogel with water‐absorbing and antioxidant properties. Wheat starch (10%, w/v) was used to produce cryogels, which were then incorporated with turmeric essential oil (TEO) at two concentrations: 20% and 30% (w/w of starch).

Concerted suppression of all starch branching enzyme genes in barley produces amylose-only starch granules

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2012
Background Starch is stored in higher plants as granules composed of semi-crystalline amylopectin and amorphous amylose. Starch granules provide energy for the plant during dark periods and for germination of seeds and tubers.

Decoupling Formulation and Processing Effects in Thermoplastic Starch Through a Data‐Driven Structure–Property Framework

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Processing‐property relationships in thermoplastic starch (TPS): plasticizer type, starch source and melt‐processing temperature establish a hierarchy of effects that governs process‐induced changes and the resulting TPS properties. ABSTRACT Thermoplastic starch (TPS) is a melt‐processable biopolymer whose properties depend strongly on formulation and ...

Functional characterisation of a predicted chloroplastic plant protein phosphatase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The phosphatase AtPTPKISI is involved in the control of starch metabolism in Arabidopsis thaliana leaves at night. The SEX4 (Starch Excess 4) mutants, lacking this predicted phosphatase, have strongly reduced rates of starch metabolism.

Comprehensive DIA‐MS Proteomics of Root Basal Nodes Elucidates Mechanisms of Salt Tolerance in Rice

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinity severely affects rice growth, yield, and quality, posing a global food security challenge. Rice is particularly vulnerable to high salinity, which restricts growth and tolerance to other stresses. To address this, breeding efforts have been made in the past, leading to the generation of multi‐stress‐tolerant rice lines.

Steric Stabilising Properties of Hydrophobically Modified Starch: Amylose vs. Amylopectin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Self-Consistent Field Theory of Scheutjens and Fleer is extended to deal with highly branched polymer chains. Using the method, the surface adsorption and the steric stabilising properties of hydrophobically modified amylose and amylopectin were compared.

Селекція нових ліній ячменю waxy

open access: yesФактори експериментальної еволюції організмів, 2016
Aim. The aim of this research was to create waxy barley forms by hybridization and to test them for high amylopectin content in starch. Methods. To create high-yielding waxy lines, we used hybridization methods. Results. Due to using spring barley forms

The structural characteristics of starches and their functional properties

open access: yesCyTA - Journal of Food, 2018
Starch is composed of amylose and amylopectin and deposited as granules of different sizes and shapes with semi-crystalline and amorphous concentric layers that show the ‘maltese cross’.

Suppression of starch synthase I (SSI) by RNA interference alters starch biosynthesis and amylopectin chain distribution in rice plants subjected to high temperature

open access: yesCrop Journal, 2019
Based on known cDNAs of rice starch synthase isoforms, we constructed dsRNA interference vectors for starch synthase I (SSI) to produce transgenic plants containing starch with a moderately high amylose content.
