Waxy protein is essential for starch synthesis. The thermodynamic characteristics were decreased in the Wx-A1 mutant line. The digestibility properties of starch were also affected. Therefore, the partial waxy mutant M3-627 might play a significant role in food improvement. Furthermore, it might also be used to produce high-quality noodles. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.
