Granule sizes of starch.

Starches	d(0.1) (μm)	d(0.5) (μm)	d(0.9) (μm)	D[4,3] (μm)
A. fortunei	5.403 ± 0.002 a	8.947 ± 0.002 a	14.760 ± 0.004 a	9.584 ± 0.002 a
Maize	7.519 ± 0.031 b	13.767 ± 0.078 b	21.305 ± 0.173 b	13.895 ± 0.086 b
Potato	16.317 ± 0.010 c	34.420 ± 0.004 d	62.406 ± 0.036 d	36.778 ± 0.006 d
Pea	16.255 ± 0.078 c	27.518 ± 0.169 c	41.917 ± 0.359 c	27.922 ± 0.204 c

The d(0.1), d(0.5), and d(0.9) are the granule sizes at which 10, 50, and 90% of all the granules by volume are smaller, respectively. The D[4,3] is the volume-weighted mean diameter. Data are means ± standard deviations, n = 3. Different superscript letters (from ^a to ^d) in the same column indicate significantly difference at p < 0.05.
