Abstract: A recombined whole grain flour for use in preparing whole grain products such that whole grain particulates provide minimal visual impact to the whole grain product. By selectively controlling the particle size of the milled bran and germ constituents used in the recombined whole grain flour, the visual and color impact associated with bran and germ particulates can be substantially eliminated from the whole grain product. In particular, whole grain products such as whole grain breads, dough products, mixes and biscuits can be made with recombined whole grain flour. Whole grain products made with recombined whole grain flour are advantageous in that they incorporate the health advantages associated with whole grains while eliminating the characteristic, visual color differences noticeable within a whole grain crumb due to visually identifiable bran and germ particulates found in traditional whole grain products.

Abstract: An enzyme resistant starch type III having a melting point or endothermic peak of at least about 140° C. as determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is produced in yields of at least about 25% by weight, based upon the weight of the original starch ingredient. A gelatinization stage, nucleation/propagation stage, and preferably a heat-treatment stage are used to produce reduced calorie starch-based compositions which contain the enzyme resistant starch type III. The high melting point of the enzyme resistant starch permits its use in baked good formulations without substantial loss of enzyme resistance upon baking. A gelatinized, starch-based bulking agent having at least 30% by weight of the enzyme-resistant starch may be used in bar-type, extruded, sheeted, or rotary molded food products. The melting enthalpy of the bulking agent may be from about 0.5 to about 4 Joules/g and its water-holding capacity may be less than 3 grams.

Abstract: The present invention is a high fiber blend which includes a stiffening agent and a plasiticizing agent. The blend replaces part of the flour in a dough without substantially affecting the dough's rheological properties. High fiber food products can then be made from the dough, using conventional commercial manufacturing equipment and processes. The blend can be used to produce food products that meet FDA requirements for fiber-related health claims. The present invention is also a method of making the high fiber blend. This method involves measuring a rheological property of the stiffening agent and the plasticizing agent. The stiffening agent and plasticizing agent are then combined, in amounts that will allow the resulting blend to provide a high level of fiber to a food product without substantially affecting the rheological properties of the dough.

Abstract: To provide a gene that controls the deep rooting of a plant, a transgenic plant introduced with the gene, a method for controlling the deep rooting of a plant using the gene, and such, high-resolution linkage analysis was performed for a genetic locus (Dro1 locus) capable of controlling the deep rooting of a plant, which was detected between a shallow-rooted rice cultivar IR64 and a deep-rooted rice cultivar Kinandang Patong in a large-scale segregating population. As a result, it was revealed that the gene region of Dro1 is located in a region of 6.0 kbp sandwiched between Dro1-INDEL09, which is an InDel marker, and Dro1-CAPS05, which is a CAPS marker. Furthermore, it was confirmed that a transgenic plant transformed with the Kinandang Patong-type Dro1 gene shows a significantly high ratio of deep rooting. It was also confirmed that a plant having the Kinandang Patong-type Dro1 gene is resistant to drought.

Abstract: Potatoes are processed to develop baked and fried flavors and aromas. The are baked to create a number of characteristic baked flavors and textures. When fried, a whole other group of flavors and textures is achieved. To avoid damage to the discrete potato pieces that are prepared in processing and are desired in the final product, the process entails baking potatoes; pressing the potatoes to a predetermined thickness; freezing the potatoes; breaking the potatoes into discrete pieces; drying the discrete pieces to form a skin thereon and preferably lightly brown the surfaces; and freezing and packaging the pieces. Oven heating will be sufficient to provide a browning effect to a light golden to golden brown color and form a skin on the exterior surface of exposed potato pulp, both important to the preparation of the best product.
