Resumo

The culinary quality of rice still prevails as a determinant parameter in the selection of promising lines by genetic breeding programs. Rice cooker test is one of the methods most used by research and processing industries in evaluating the yield and texture of the cooked grains of cultivars released and / or new lineages under study. Normally, in the methodology, the homemade cooking is simulated and the sensorial test is carried out with a team of tasters selected and trained for this purpose, choosing those most promising lines. However, traditional sensory evaluation is a judicious and relatively time-consuming method, since it requires training, aptitude, people and product availability, and scales of classification of standardized attributes associated with instrumental scales whenever possible. An instrumental test for texture analysis of cooked rice that is standard, reliable, fast and reproducible and whose results are associated with sensorial evaluation is not yet available. The objective of this work was to adjust the scale of cooked rice texture notes in the sensorial analysis, through new standards and according to the sensitivity of the panel of tasters and demands of Brazilian industries. The objective of this study was to evaluate the grain quality of 55 rice genotypes with different levels of amylose by means of sensorial, physico-chemical and instrumental methods and to propose rules based on the association of laboratory data with the sensory data for validation of an application recently developed in free software, with the function of integrating the quality data and indicating the expected culinary quality for the sample. Prediction models for sensory evaluation were expanded through statistical methods such as multiple regression, polytomic logistic regression, and principal component analysis. The results showed that 70% of the parameters of the viscoamilographic profile were associated to the sensory analysis data, followed by 68% and 62% for the instrumental analysis of texture and for the combination of the amylose content and the gelatinization temperature of the samples, respectively. The results of the multiple regression showed a high predictive power, with four significant variables (pejity and instrumental hardness, peak viscosity and final viscosity), indicating a great association of these values with the sensorial test. The viscoamilographic measurements of RVA (peak viscosity, trough, final viscosity, setback and peak time) also presented high predictive power of the instrumental texture with 77% of the total variance explained by the two main components. From these data, it was possible to create value rules for the development of a free software application in the prediction of rice cooking quality. The parameters used and the prediction models used allowed the data from the instrumental tests to predict the most probable classification of the culinary quality, without the necessity of the sensorial test itself.
