“…These include interactions with amylopectin component of starch and between each other, leading to micro-segregation of phases ( Daudt et al., 2016 ; Pelissari et al., 2013 ). The increase in prominence of the pores with increase in glycerol content could be due to hydrophobic effect of non-starch components (protein and lipids) which led to their self-aggregation and merging to form fiber-like structure ( Liu et al., 2018 ). This phenomenon is important for the development of film with appropriate surface and barrier properties ( Huntrakul et al., 2020 ).…”

“…It was deduced from earlier results in this report that ASF had more concentration of non-starch components such as lipid and protein in its matrix. Interactions of lipid and protein are known to enhance flexibility of films (Batista et al, 2005;Liu et al, 2018). Lipid-protein interactions led to creation of intermolecular networks within the matrix.…”

Some properties of biodegradable edible films developed from starches of acha (Digitalia exilis) and iburu (Digitalia iburua), with glycerol as plasticizer, were evaluated and compared. Scanning electron microscope revealed that acha starch film (ASF) had rougher surface with larger size spores. Both films showed similar crystallinity pattern made up of A-type pattern of cereal starch as backbone and process induced V H-crystals. FTIR spectroscopy revealed the traces of some non-starch components in the films matrices. Both films had near-equal thickness (≈0.02 mm). However, iburu starch film (ISF) exhibited higher density, swelling power, water solubility and mechanical resistant while ASF gave higher water vapor permeability. Both films maintained their integrity during water solubility testing period. ISF had significantly (p < .05) higher transparency (97.08%) while ASF had higher a* (−0.06) and b* (1.81) values. Films from the starches exhibited promising characteristics that could place them as good materials for different packaging requirements. Fabricación y caracterización de películas comestibles a partir de almidones de acha [mijo] (Digitalia exilis) e iburu (Digitalia iburua) RESUMENEl presente estudio se propuso evaluar y comparar algunas propiedades de las películas comestibles biodegradables elaboradas a partir de almidones de acha (Digitalia exilis) e iburu (Digitalia iburua), utilizando glicerol como plastificante. El microscopio electrónico de barrido permitió constatar que la película de almidón de acha (ASF) posee una superficie más rugosa, presentando esporas de mayor tamaño. Ambas películas muestran un patrón de cristalinidad similar, conformado por un patrón de tipo A del almidón de cereal como columna vertebral y por cristales V H inducidos por el proceso. Mediante la espectroscopia FTIR se comprobó la presencia de algunos componentes no relacionados con el almidón en las matrices de las películas. Ambas películas tienen un grosor casi igual (≈0.02 mm). Sin embargo, la película de almidón iburu (ISF) presenta mayor densidad, poder de hinchamiento, solubilidad en agua y resistencia mecánica, mientras que la ASF posee mayor permeabilidad al vapor de agua. Ambas películas mantuvieron su integridad durante el periodo de pruebas de solubilidad en agua. La ISF mostró una transparencia significativamente mayor (p < .05) (97.08%), mientras que la ASF registró valores más altos de a* (−0.06) y b* (1.81). En conclusión, las películas de los almidones poseen características prometedoras que podrían situarlas como buenos materiales para diferentes requerimientos de envasado.

Adlay (Coix lacryma-jobi L.), a crop closed related to maize (Zea mays L.) and sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.), originated in tropical/subtropical regions of Asia and Africa; southwest China primary center of this plant’s origin, evolution and migration. Adlay is a traditional high-value minor crop used for both medicinal and dietary purposes. Adlay has anti-tumor, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, blood sugar-lowering, and blood lipid-lowering effects. To clarify the main bioactive components and phytochemical compounds and to fully explore their utility, this review summarizes the research done on the main functional ingredients of adlay, including amino acids and proteins, oils, vitamins and minerals, polysaccharides, and polyphenols. This study also highlighted the application of genome sequencing to tailor nutrient-rich adlay cultivars and nutraceutical product development. Additionally, the acquisition of high-density genomic data combined with next-generation phenotypic analysis will undoubtedly improve our understanding of the potential genetic regulation of adlay nutraceutical traits. This review provides new insights and ideas for the research of adlay in comparison and evolutionary genomics, and a useful reference for molecular breeding and genetic improvement of this important minor crop.
