以中群14QPM和陕综5号QPM两个优质蛋白玉米（QPM）群体为试材，采用胚乳硬质度5级分类法对籽粒超微结构进行观察分析。结果表明，胚乳硬质度越高，籽粒物理性状越好，蛋白质品质越差；硬质度越低，籽粒物理性状越差，蛋白质品质越好。在含奥帕克-2（o2）的QPM群体中，胚乳硬质度、籽粒密度的差异主要表现于胚乳内部组织（EN）的不同，而胚乳边缘组织（EN1）无差异。胚乳内部组织结构的疏密排布、淀粉粒形状、均匀性、角质化程度决定了籽粒物理性状的优劣；胚乳内部组织中基质蛋白形态、密度以及与淀粉粒结合紧密程度决定了优质蛋白玉米籽粒的营养品质。 Two quality protein maize popul...
