Three <i>Starch Synthase IIa</i> (<i>SSIIa</i>) Alleles Reveal the Effect of SSIIa on the Thermal and Rheological Properties, Viscoelasticity, and Eating Quality of Glutinous Rice

Glutinous rice accumulates amylose-free starch and is utilized for rice cakes and crackers, owing to the loss of the <i>Waxy</i> gene which encodes granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI). <i>Starch synthase IIa (SSIIa)</i> elongates amylopectin chains with a degree of polyme...
