The quality of cassava starch, an important trait in cassava breeding programs, determines its applications in various industries. For example, development of waxy (having a low level of amylose) cassava is in demand. Amylose is synthesized by granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI) in plants, an...

Development of waxy Cassava with different biological and physico-chemical characteristics of starches for industrial applications
Cassava is a regional crop in India, 97 percent of the production coming from the states of Kerala and Tamil Nadu. On a countrywide basis, cassava makes only a small contribution to total calorie intake; in the south, however, it ranks 2nd to rice. Data are presented on production and utilization...

Custard powder is a dry-formulated food product primarily made from imported corn starch in developing countries. To reduce over-dependence on corn starch, this study investigated its replacement with yellow-fleshed cassava root starch (YfCRS) in custard powder formulation. Response surface metho...
The aim was to investigate the chemical and functional properties of starches produced from 39 different cassava varieties (36 varieties resistant to cassava mosaic disease and three checks TMS 30572, 4(2) 1425 and 8200058) in two planting seasons at the experimental farm of the International Ins...
