Critical roles of soluble starch synthase SSIIIa and granule-bound starch synthase Waxy in synthesizing resistant starch in rice
Hongju Zhou,Lijun Wang,Guifu Liu,Xiangbing Meng,Yanhui Jing,Xiaoli Shu,Xiangli Kong,Sun Jian,Hong Yu,Steven M. Smith,Steven M. Smith,Dianxing Wu,Jiayang Li +12 more
TL;DR: This study identified a defective soluble starch synthase gene (SSIIIa) responsible for RS production and showed that RS production is dependent on the high expression of the Waxya (Wxa) allele, which is prevalent in indica varieties.

Effects of grain development on formation of resistant starch in rice.
Xiaoli Shu,Sun Jian,Dianxing Wu +2 more
TL;DR: The lower activities of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase and starch branching enzyme and the higher activity of starch synth enzyme and starch de-branching enzyme observed in high-RS rice might be responsible for the formation of small irregular starch granules with large spaces between them, leading to differences in the physiochemical properties of starch.

Characterisation of starch during germination and seedling development of a rice mutant with a high content of resistant starch
TL;DR: In this paper, the high-RS rice mutant RS4 (RS ca. 10%) and the wild type R7954 were used to investigate total amylase activity, seedling vigour, starch content and starch granule structure during germination.

Dependence of physiochemical, functional and textural properties of high‐resistant starch rice on endogenous nonstarch polysaccharides
Sun Jian,Wang Yin,Xiuqiong Zhang,Søren K. Rasmussen,Xiaotong Jiang,Wenjian Song,Dianxing Wu,Xiaoli Shu +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, nonstarch polysaccharides had significant influences on the gelatinisation temperature, RVA parameters of R7954, but no significant influence on that of cw.

TL;DR: This research first assessed the similarity and differentiation between genetic diversity of genotype and phenotype in 768 world-wild cowpea germplasm which were collected by USDA and US breeding programs and indicated that the East Africa and South Asia sub-continents were the original and secondary regions ofcowpea domestication.
