Genotypic, grain morphological and locality variation in rice phytate content and phytase activity
Phytate complexes in whole grain rice are indigestible by human but can be broken down by endogenous phytase enzyme. The inherent phytate content and phytase activity could influence the nutritional quality of whole grain rice. This work aims to determine and identify their variability with genotype...
