Biochemical composition of the pericarp cell wall of popcorn inbred lines with different popping expansion [PDF]
Current Research in Food Science, 2022 The popping expansion is a characteristic that is positively related with the quality of popcorn. A positive correlation between the volume of expansion and the thickness of the pericarp, and between the proportion of the opaque/shiny endosperm and the ...
