Schematic representation of the α-glucans in this study, phytoglycogen in EM914, soluble and insoluble α-glucan in the transgenic rice line (#20), and L- and S-amylopectin in indica and japonica rice, respectively. Insoluble α-glucan in line #20 is more elongated than the soluble α-glucan and phytoglycogen. Amylopectin exhibits A-type crystallinity, whereas phytoglycogen and α-glucan in SSIIa I /isa1 have no (phytoglycogen and soluble α-glucan) or a weak B-type (insoluble α-glucan) crystallinity.
