Thermal properties of starch in endosperm of BEI-deficient mutant of rice as measured by differential scanning calorimetry

Four homozygous sbe1 mutant lines, BMF69, BMF70, BMF71 (EM557S), and EMF22; two homozygous wx mutant lines, BMF23-1 and BMF23-2; two homozygous sbe1/wx mutant lines, EMF25 and EMF26; a homozygous ae mutant line, EM529; and a homozygous ae/wx mutant line, AMF24 were used for analyses as well as the wild-type rice cv T65. The values are averages of three replications.
