| characterization of japanese polished rice by stable hydrogen isotope analysis of total fatty acids for tracing regional origin. | we determined the δd values of the total fatty acids of japanese rice to test the hypothesis that there is a wide variation in the hydrogen isotopic composition (δd) of the total fatty acids of japanese rice sourced from different growth areas in japan and to distinguish the minor differences among these growth areas. the δd values showed a wide variation ranging from -216‰ (hokkaido) to -183‰ (okinawa), indicating a good correlation with the corresponding variations for ambient water (r = 0.63) ... | 2013 | 23303100 |
| differences in viscosity of superior and inferior spikelets of japonica rice with various percentages of apparent amylose content. | viscosity, a crucial characteristic for rice palatability, is affected by endosperm characters. we compared correlations between differences in viscosity of japonica rice with various palatability and endosperm characters. changes in apparent amylose and protein contents (aac% and pc%, respectively) and amylopectin side-chain distribution and the relationship of these traits with palatability were investigated in superior and inferior spikelets of good cultivars with low amylose content from hok ... | 2017 | 28358983 |
