Summaries (En, Ko) N2 - These studies were conducted to investigate the changes in carbohydrate properties of the endosperm during the stages of maturity. Original moisture continued to decrease while 1,000-kernel weight and test weight increased steadily in all varieties with maturation. Starch content of the endosperm increased continuously by 35 to 40 days after heading. The B-type starch granules synthesis of the the early mature variety, Chokwang, was depressed at the later stages of development. Amylose and amylopectin components of starch both increased as the kernel matured, and amylose-amylopectin ratio also increased during the same period.
