The Rice Endosperm Enzyme Action Effect the Eating Quality of Cooked Rice

Breeding of new rice cultivar ‘Tohoku 194’ with ‘Sasanishiki’-type good eating quality of cooked rice

Cooked rice of 'Sasanishiki' is soft and not as sticky as those of Japanese leading cultivars 'Koshihikari' and 'Hitomebore'. As a method for efficient selection of a breeding line having a good eating quality like that of 'Sasanishiki', the use of physical properties of cooked rice and cooking quality was examined. There were differences of physical properties of the surface layer, starch-iodi...

Analysis of husking action in the rubber-roll rice sheller

Pullulanase from rice endosperm.

Pullulanase (EC 3.2.1.41) in non-germinating seeds was compared with that in germinating seeds. Moreover, pullulanase from the endosperm of rice (Oryza sativa L., cv. Hinohikari) seeds was isolated and its properties investigated. The pI value of pullulanase from seeds after 8 days of germination was almost equal to that from non-germinating seeds, which shows that these two enzymes are the sam...

Properties of Endosperm Starches and Physical Properties of Cooked Rice from Japanese Upland Rice Cultivars Containing M-type Amylopectin

Here we examined the properties of endosperm starches and the physical properties of cooked rice from four cultivars of Japanese upland rice containing M-type amylopectin (Chikanarijyun1, Kairyo13, Mogamichikanari1 and Hokkaiakage); S-type Nipponbare and L-type Kasalath served as standards. The amylopectin chain ratio (ACR ; ratio of the short chains of DP ≤ 10 to the short and intermediate cha...
