摘要
Main conclusionThis article offers a comprehensive overview of the starch, protein, oil, and carotenoids content in maize kernels, while also outlining future directions for research in this area.AbstractMaize is one of the most important cereal crops globally. Maize kernels serve as a vital source of feed and food, and their nutritional quality directly impacts the dietary intake of both animals and humans. Maize kernels contain starch, protein, oil, carotenoids, and a variety of vitamins and minerals, all of which are important for maintaining life and promoting health. This review presents the current understanding of the content of starch, protein, amino acids, oil, and carotenoids in maize kernels, while also highlighting knowledge gaps that need to be addressed.
