Effects of post-silking low temperature on the starch and protein metabolism, endogenous hormone contents, and quality of grains in waxy maize

Abstract: Waxy maize has many excellent characteristics in food and nonfood industries. However, post-silking low temperature (LT) has severe limitations on its grain yield and quality. In this study, field and pot trials were conducted to investigate the effects of post-silking LT on the physiological, biochemical, and functional characteristics of two waxy maize grains. The field and pot trials were performed with sowing date and artificial climate chamber, respectively, for LT treatment from silking stage to maturity… Show more

“…The proportions of the numbers and surface areas of the starch granules also exhibited an identical trend, with those of the large starch granules reduced by 14.05% and 24.14% in the JXZ variety, respectively, and by 20.27% and 26.25% in the HHZ variety, respectively. Similar results were observed under low temperatures at the GFS, which inhibited the enzymes related to the biosynthesis and accumulation of starch, resulting in an elevation in the number of small and medium-sized starch granules [36,37]. Meantime, the LNT delayed the development of starch granules in the endosperm and inhibited the absorption and accumulation of assimilates, thereby blocking the biosynthesis of large starch granules [19,35].…”

“…Starch and protein accumulation in maize kernels have been reported to be regulated by water and temperature in previous studies (Singletary et al, 1994;Correndo et al, 2021;Guo et al, 2022). The sucrose required for starch accumulation was regulated by photosynthesis, which was affected by solar radiation, temperature, precipitation, and other meteorological factors.…”
