Abstract:Low amylose containing parboiled soft rice is a natural wonder having ready-to-eat trait (RTE) with possible risk of high glycemic response (GR). In this present investigation typical Indian soft rice (var. Vogali Bora) was studied for biochemical basis, whole genomic and transcriptomic dissection followed by molecular breeding for improvement of yield and GR. Quantitative estimation showed that lower amylose (AC) to amylopectin ratio with low resistant starch (RS) in soft rice may be the possible biochemical … Show more
