ABSTRACT
This study examined four types of japonica rice from Yangtze River Delta, categorized based on amylose content (AC) and protein content (PC) high AC with high PC, high AC with low PC, low AC with high PC, and low AC with low PC. It systematically explored the effect of starch, protein and their interactions on eating quality of japonica rice. Rheological analysis revealed that increased amylose, long chains amylopectin or protein levels during cooking strengthen starch-protein interactions (hydrogen bonding), forming a firm gel network. Scanning electron microscopy showed that increased amylose, long chains amylopectin or protein levels made protein and starch more stable in combination during cooking, limiting starch structure cleavage. Therefore, the eating quality of high AC in similar PC japonica rice and high PC in similar AC japonica rice were poor. Further, correlation and random-forest analysis (RFA) identified amylose as the most influential factor in starch-protein interactions affecting rice eating quality, followed by amylopectin and protein. RFA also revealed that in high AC japonica rice, the interactions of Fb3 and albumin with amylose were more conducive to forming good eating quality. In low AC japonica rice, the interactions of Fb2 and prolamin with amylose were more beneficial.
