Abstract
Nitrogen (N) topdressing often leads to a decline in cooking and eating quality due to alterations in grain chemical composition. Investigation into the response of N compounds in grains, such as protein-bound amino acids (PAA), free amino acids (FAA), and other residue N compounds (Nresidue), would be beneficial for understanding the impact of N on rice quality. The present study selected five japonica rice cultivars and conducted a two-year field experiment employing two N fertilization treatments: the CK treatment, where all N fertilizer was applied as basal fertilizer, and the topdressing treatment, where 50% of the total N was applied as topdressing at the panicle initiation stage. Averaging across years and cultivars, N topdressing resulted in a 16.3% increase in PAA and an 8.65% decrease in FAA, with no significant impact on Nresidue. N topdressing resulted in a decrease in the proportion of essential amino acids found in prolamins, as well as a reduction in the proportion of amino acids belonging to the aspartate family and arginine. Significant genotypic variations were observed in the response of nitrogen components to topdressing. Furthermore, elite cultivars with premium quality exhibited greater stability in amylose content compared to protein content.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Cereal Science was established in 1983 to provide an International forum for the publication of original research papers of high standing covering all aspects of cereal science related to the functional and nutritional quality of cereal grains (true cereals - members of the Poaceae family and starchy pseudocereals - members of the Amaranthaceae, Chenopodiaceae and Polygonaceae families) and their products, in relation to the cereals used. The journal also publishes concise and critical review articles appraising the status and future directions of specific areas of cereal science and short communications that present news of important advances in research. The journal aims at topicality and at providing comprehensive coverage of progress in the field.
