Interaction of starch branching enzyme 3 and granule-bound starch synthase 1 alleles increases amylose content and alters physico-chemical properties in japonica rice (Oryza sativa L.).

ABSTRACT: Four near-isogenic lines (NILs) with different allele combinations of the starch branching enzyme 3 (SBE3) and granule-bound starch synthase 1 (GBSS1) were developed by crossing the japonica rice cultivars "Dodamssal" and "Hwayeong." The associations between sequence variations in SBE3 and GBSS1, and starch-related traits were investigated. These sequence variations led to changes in seed morphology, starch structure, starch crystallinity, amylopectin chain length distribution, digestibility, apparent amylose content (AAC), and resistant starch content (RS). SBE3 and GBSS1 showed genetic interaction in regulating AAC and RS. Gene expression profiling of panicle tissues revealed significant differences in expression levels of
