The rice quality and starch functional properties, as well as the storability of three YY-IJHR cultivars, which included YY12 (biased japonica type YY-IJHR), YY1540 (intermedius type YY-IJHR) and YY15 (biased indica type YY-IJHR), were studied and compared to N84 (conventional japonica rice). The study results suggested that the three YY-IJHR varieties all had greater cooking and eating quality than N84, as they had lower amylose and protein content. The starch of YY-IJHR has a higher pasting viscosity and digestibility, and there was a significant difference among the three YY-IJHR cultivars. Rice aroma components were revealed by GC-IMS, which indicated that the content of alcohols vola-tile components of YY-IJHR were generally lower, whereas the content of some aldehydes and esters were higher than N84. In addition, YY-IJHR cultivars' FFA and MDA contents were lower, which demonstrated that YY-IJHR had a higher palatability and storability than those of N84 in fresh rice and rice stored for 12 months. In conclusion, this study suggested that YY-IJHR had better rice quality and storability than N84. PCA indicated that the grain quality and storability of YY12 and YY15 were similar and performed better than YY1540, while the aroma components and starch functional properties of YY-IJHR cultivars all had significant differences.
