Large and small granules were separated from C-type starches of four Chinese chestnut varieties growing in the same environment. They had similar amylose contents from 17.7% to 20.2% and showed C-type crystallinity. The large granules had relative crystallinity from 192% to 20.3%, ordered degree from 0.672 to 0.706, and lamellar peak intensity from 2332 to 267.1, but small granules had relative crystallinity from 162% to 18.2%, ordered degree from 0.635 to 0.663, and lamellar peak intensity from 201.6 to 213.1. The gelatinization peak temperatures ranged from 62.6 to 65.7 degrees C in large granules but from 603 to 61.7 degrees C in small granules, and enthalpy variation did from 12.5 to 13.7 J/g in large granules but from 10.1 to 11.7 J/g in small granules. Both large and small granules showed biphasic hydrolysis. Though small granules had significantly higher hydrolysis rate than large granules, but they had similar total hydrolysis extent during whole hydrolysis. The granule size had significantly positive relationships with relative crystallinity, ordered degree, lamellar peak intensity, and gelatinization temperature and enthalpy variation, but was negatively correlated to hydrolysis rate. The principal component analysis was conducted to reveal the interrelationships among different starch properties and the variations among different starches. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V.
