Abstract Background and Objective Texture is critical in determining the eating quality of cooked rice and is dependent on physiochemical properties of rice grains. In this study, relationships between texture properties of cooked rice with grain amylose and protein content were evaluated across 25 high eating quality indica rice varieties. Findings Grain amylose and protein content ranged from 13.2% to 20.0% and from 5.37% to 7.77%, with means of 17.6% and 6.43%, respectively. The ranges of hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, resilience, and ...
