The Role of Starch Physicochemical Properties in Determining the Glycaemic Index of Novel Potato Varieties
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Potatoes are often thought of as high GI. It is known that cooking and cooling affect GI and that these effects may be mediated through the physicochemical properties of their starch. As part of a Canadian initiative to develop low GI potatoes, novel potato varieties which differed in starch composition were tested in 2 separate studies. In study 1, we determined the GI of 8 varieties and found that cooling produced a wide range of effects (0-50% reduction in GI). In study 2, four previously tested varieties were re-examined. A significant variety-x-treatment interaction (p<0.01) was observed with cooling reducing GI in some potatoes. Examination of the starch properties and their role in determining GI showed that RDS was positively associated with GI (r2= 0.85, p= 0.001) and SDS (r2=-0.60, p= 0.02) and amylose (r2=-0.99, p=0.007) negatively associated with GI. No relationship between RS and phosphorous content and GI was observed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
