<p>Hybrid maize seeds which yield a starch having an amylose content of 80 % or more are disclosed as are starches having that amylose content. Compositions including these high amylose starches are also disclosed. Fractions of high amylose starches which have been formed on the basis of granule size are shown to have enhanced dietary fibre and/or resistant starch content. Such fractions enable the preparation of food compositions of enhanced dietary fibre and/or resistant starch content.</p> |
