Geneticists could show that waxy maize has a defect in metabolism precluding the synthesis of amylose in the endosperm. (wikipedia.org)
A total of 150 accessions of hulless barley were primarily tested by staining endosperm with I 2 -KI, and four accessions (IG107028, Puebla, Huzhushuangcaoren, and APM-HC1905) were found as waxy genotypes. (chinacrops.org)

Grains3
Nutrient composition of selected raw cereal grains (per 100 grams )Cereals, or grains, are members of the grass family cultivated primarily for their starchy seeds ( technically , dry fruits). (en-academic.com)
Moreover, it contaminates the cereal grains with health-threatening mycotoxins, such as deoxynivalenol (DON), jeopardizing food and feed safety. (terrapurainterior.org.br)
Fusarium head blight (FHB), also known as scab or tombstone, is a serious fungal disease of wheat (including durum), barley, oats and other small cereal grains and corn. (terrapurainterior.org.br)
Barley6
The Waxy gene ( Wx ) located on the short arm of chromosome 7H is a key gene responsible for amylose synthesis, and also acts as a favorable gene in breeding of hulless barley. (chinacrops.org)
Primer P4 can be used as an effective marker in the selection of waxy hulless barley cultivars. (chinacrops.org)
The principal cereals used as components of animal feeds ( feed ) are wheat and such wheat by-products as the outer coverings separated in the preparation of white flour (bran and the more floury middlings), corn , barley , sorghum , rye , and oats . (en-academic.com)
The compounded ration for a milking cow generally contains about 50-80 percent cereals, consisting of wheat by-products, flaked or ground corn, barley, sorghum, wheat, and oats. (en-academic.com)
barley is desirable for fattening, and oats help provide a better balanced cereal for livestock. (en-academic.com)

Crops3
Various approaches employed to address the micronutrient bioavailability are showing promising signs, especially in cereal crops. (frontiersin.org)
Cereal crops are rich sources of mineral ions, but the presence of certain anti-nutritional components limits their bioavailability ( Raboy, 2009 ). (frontiersin.org)
The insects are also emerging as a threat to crops such as green beans, cereals, vegetables and various fruits. (nlpwessex.org)
Maize5
When feeding trials later on showed that waxy maize could produce more efficient feed gains than normal dent maize, interest in waxy maize suddenly expanded. (wikipedia.org)
Waxy maize yield about 3.5% less than their normal dent counterparts and has to be isolated from any nearby normal maize fields by at least 200 meters. (wikipedia.org)
The exact history of waxy maize is unknown. (wikipedia.org)
Collins supposed that waxy maize has arisen by a way of mutation in Upper Burma. (wikipedia.org)

Carbohydrates1
Animal foods require proper balance between the cereals (carbohydrates) and the more proteinous foods, and they must also contain suitable amounts of necessary minerals, vitamins, and other nutrients. (en-academic.com)
Corn2
Waxy corn or glutinous corn is a type of field corn characterized by its sticky texture when cooked as a result of larger amounts of amylopectin. (wikipedia.org)
His work in Waxy corn addresses issues such as Swelling, which are connected to fields such as Polymer chemistry. (research.com)
Mutation2
For some scholars it was difficult to conceive that from 1516 on the American plant had had time to penetrate into a wild country inaccessible to foreigners, to produce a mutation, and as such a mutant to spread from the Philippines to Northern Manchuria and the Primorsky region within three to four hundred years. (wikipedia.org)
At first we know that the waxy mutation is quite common (see #Genetics). (wikipedia.org)

Starch granule1
KEY MESSAGE: Barley double mutants in two genes involved in starch granule morphology, HvFLO6 and HvISA1, had impaired starch accumulation and higher grain sugar levels than either single mutant. (bvsalud.org)
