Amylose Inter-Chain Entanglement and Inter-Chain Overlap Impact Rice Quality
Retrogradation of cooked rice happens in two ways: one is by the formation of ordered structures, and the other is through intra- and inter-chain entanglement and inter-chain overlap, which in turn are affected by the amylose chain-length distribution ...

Impact of Variation in Amylose Content on Durum Wheat cv. Svevo Technological and Starch Properties
Reserve starch, the main component of durum wheat semolina, is constituted of two glucan homopolymers (amylose and amylopectin) that differ in their chemical structure.

Variations in agronomic and grain quality traits of rice grown under irrigated lowland conditions in West Africa [PDF]
Rice breeding in West Africa has been largely skewed toward yield enhancement and stress tolerance. This has led to the variable grain quality of locally produced rice in the region.

Effect of starch physiology, gelatinization, and retrogradation on the attributes of rice starch-ι-carrageenan film [PDF]
Edible films and coatings have been applied as the potential substitutes for conventional plastics in food packaging. However, their physical and mechanical properties still have limitations and thus require further improvement.

Unlocking the Potential of High-Amylose Starch for Gut Health: Not All Function the Same
High-amylose starch has unique functional properties and nutritional values in food applications. This type of starch is generally resistant to enzymatic digestion in the gastrointestinal tract, and contains an increased fraction of resistant starch (RS),

Profiling Bangladeshi rice diversity based on grain size and amylose content using molecular markers
Bangladesh lies within the origin of rice biodiversity and is home to many genotypes with varying amylose content and grain size. There is however no precise data on their amylose content and correlation with grain size and type.
