The diagrams of state of mixtures of 4-n-alkyloxybenzylidene-4'-n-butylanilines with 4-n- alkyl- and 4-n-alkyloxy-4'-cyanobiphenyls are studied. The mixtures form induced smectic phases of type SA, SB and SE. In all three smectic phases the thickness of the smectic layers agrees with the mean values of the molecular lengths. In most cases the induced SA phases do not show uninterrupted miscibility with the SA phases of the pure components. For instance, the system 40 • 4/8 CBP exhibits three separate SA phase areas. The maximum transition temperatures of the induced smectic phases increase with increasing chain length of the azomethines, but remain constant in case of the SA and SB phases or even decrease in case of the SE phases with increasing chain length of the cyanobiphenyls

Nitrogen (N) fertilization and irrigation are significant agronomic factors affecting wheat production, but little information is available on the effects of reduced N fertilization and irrigation on internal starch structure and physicochemical properties associated with the quality of wheat-based foods. In this study, reduced N fertilization and irrigation were separately applied to investigate their effects on composition and morphological changes, crystalline and external region structure features, swelling power, and gelatinization characteristics of starch granules in bread wheat, with a high N-use-efficiency and water-saving wheat cultivar Zhongmai 175 and a widely grown cultivar Jingdong 17. Compared with a non-N control, reduced N fertilization did not change the crystallinity type and short-range ordered degree of starch; however, it significantly increased relative crystallinity, swelling power and gelatinization enthalpy, whereas amylose content and transition temperatures were decreased. Under reduced irrigation, more small starch granules with compact arrangements appeared in comparison with non-water control. Relative crystallinity, swelling power and gelatinization enthalpy of starch were increased, whereas short-range ordered degree and transition temperatures were decreased. Moreover, the starch of the two cultivars appeared to differ in response to both the N and water treatments. The findings indicated that reduced N fertilization or irrigation markedly influenced the structure and physicochemical characteristics of wheat starch, providing important information for developing elite cultivars with high N and water use efficiency and outstanding starch quality.
