Canna rhizomes aged seven months were harvested, and their segments were classified into four groups: mother, immature, premature and mature segments, according to the sequence of development. Based on weight of the segments, the mature segment was the greatest part (70%), whereas the immature and premature were of comparable amounts (14% and 15%, respectively). The average weight of one rhizome was...
This study investigated the physicochemical properties of rhizome starch of A. altaica for the first time. The results were compared to those obtained from two common starches (potato and rice). The rhizome had a starch content of 49.8%. Isolated starch granules were mostly oval in shape with a central Maltese cross and an average long axis of 6.25μm. The starch contained 35.5% amylose and had lower...
