Characteristics of Giant Embryo Rice and Research Prospect of Its Processing and Utilization

Abstract

Giant embryo rice is a special kind of functional rice which can produce eutrophic rice. It conforms to people's concept of food consumption and healthy life. Giant embryo rice and its intensively processed products have been widely used in food, medicine, health products and other fields. They have extremely important scientific significance and economic value, and have become one of the most nutritional and health-care functional rice in the future. In recent years, a series of important advances have been made in the research of giant embryo rice. The special nutrients, agronomic characteristics and products developed by giant embryo rice have attracted the attention of rice breeders and consumers at home and abroad. In this paper, the research contents and new advances in the creation and breeding of giant embryo rice germplasm, the characteristics of nutrient changes, important agronomic traits and the processing and utilization of giant embryo rice were summarized, and the application prospect of giant embryo rice was prospected, all of which could provide important reference for the development and sustainable utilization of giant embryo rice.
