• Discriminating post-silking environmental effects on starch composition in maize kernels 

      Martínez, Roberto D.; Cirilo, Alfredo Gabriel; Cerrudo, Aníbal Alejandro; Andrade, Fernando Hector; Izquierdo, Natalia Gabriela (Elsevier, 2019-05)
      Maize (Zea mays L.) endosperms with high amylose proportion are harder and denser than endosperms with low amylose. Environmental conditions could affect amylose/starch ratio. The purpose of this work was to prove the ...
    • Environment affects starch composition and kernel hardness in temperate maize 

      Martínez, Roberto Dionisio; Cirilo, Alfredo Gabriel; Cerrudo, Aníbal Alejandro; Andrade, Fernando Hector; Izquierdo, Natalia Gabriela (Wiley, 2022-03)
      BACKGROUND: Protein percentage and kernel weight affect the endosperm hardness of maize grains. However, changes in starch composition could also modify kernel hardness, which is often predicted through milling ratio. The ...
    • Propiedades térmicas del almidón de maíz colorado duro: efecto del secado a 70 y 90°C 

      Actis, Marcos; Ordóñez, Matías; Farroni, Abel Eduardo; Bartosik, Ricardo Enrique; Gely, Cristina; Pagano, Ana (2017)
      Se comparo el efecto del secado natural (a temperatura ambiente) frente al artificial (a 70 y 90°C), que es el más frecuentemente utilizado en los tratamientos convencionales realizados en plantas de acopio, sobre el peso ...
