1. Introduction

The world demand for maize has grown in recent years, driven by advances in the economy of Asian countries and the use of this cereal for ethanol production in the United States (11 Pavão AR, Ferreira Filho JBS. Impactos econômicos da introdução do milho Bt11 no Brasil: uma abordagem de equilíbrio geral inter-regional. Revista de Economia e Sociologia Rural. 2011; 9(1): 81-108. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0103-20032011000100004
http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0103-20032011...
). The growing demand, both internal and external, reinforces the great potential of the sector that, together with soybeans, is considered a basic input for poultry and pig farming, two extremely competitive markets internationally and revenue generators for Brazil (22 Caldarelli CE, Bacchi MRP. Fatores de influência no preço do milho no Brasil. Nova Economia. 2012; 22(1): 141-164. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0103-63512012000100005
http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0103-63512012...
).

The importance of maize in Brazil is wide, because its production occurs both in small typically family farms, whose purpose is subsistence, as well as in large tracts of land, in which the use of production technologies and skilled labor predominates (33 Lima BC, Dudek, G, Chaves, MHM, Martins AG, Mission VC, Mission RF. Diversidade genética em acessos de milho crioulo. Brasilian Journal of Development. 2020; 6(10): 82712-82726. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.34117/bjdv6n10-631
http://dx.doi.org/10.34117/bjdv6n10-631...
). In economically developed regions, crops are intended for the cultivation of hybrid and transgenic maize, while in regions where there is a predominance of family farming, the cultivated maize consists of local traditional varieties (44 Fontinele YR, Santos VB, Nascimento LO, Aragão AC, Nascimento MM, Ferreira AB, Lima AFB, Moreira JGV, Araújo DR. Variability, association and selection of promising characters for breeding creole maize. Journal of Experimental Agriculture International. 2021; 43(4): 31-43. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.9734/jeai/2021/v43i430670
http://dx.doi.org/10.9734/jeai/2021/v43i...
).

Traditional maize presents itself as a viable alternative of production for small farmers, because it needs low levels of investment in inputs to achieve satisfactory productivity (55 Vargas CC, Morais RM, Redaelli LR. Infestação de milho crioulo, convencional e transgênico pela lagarta-do-cartucho e pela lagarta-da-espiga e parasitismo de ovos. Revista Brasileira de Milho e Sorgo. 2017; 16(3): 351-360. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.18512/1980-6477/rbms.v16n3p351-360
http://dx.doi.org/10.18512/1980-6477/rbm...
). In addition, these plant materials are a precious source of favorable alleles, useful to enrich the genetic basis of existing breeding programs (66 Vieira LC, Guerra MP, Barbosa Neto JF. Análise preliminar de germoplasma de variedades crioulas de milho do sul do Brasil. Revista Brasileira de Milho e Sorgo. 2016; 15(3): 557-571. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.18512/rbms.v15i3.510
http://dx.doi.org/10.18512/rbms.v15i3.51...
). However, the selection made by both farmers and environmental factors provided the existence of a great genetic variability for these varieties (77 Perales G, GolicheR D. Mapping the diversity of maize races in Mexico. Plos One. 2014; 9(12): 1-20. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0114657
http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0...
).

In the case of family farming, maize is of great importance for subsistence, because it has high energy value and is consumed directly as food, in the form of cooked maize or its derivatives such as pamonha, canjica, couscous and cakes (88 Môro GV, Fritsche-Neto R. (2017). Importância e usos do milho no Brasil. In: Borém A, Galvão JCC, Pimentel MA, editores. Milho do plantio à colheita. Viçosa, MG: UFV; 2017. p. 09-24.). Although maize grains are considered an indispensable food for the survival of these farmers, the amounts of some nutrients, present in unbalanced quantities or at levels inadequate for consumers who depend on maize as the main source of food (99 Nuss ET, Tanumihardjo SA. Maize: a paramount staple crop in the context of global nutrition. Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety. 2010; 9(4): 417-436. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1541-4337.2010.00117.x
http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1541-4337.20...
).

It is therefore essential that studies in order to know the nutritional value and the characteristics of the grains of traditional varieties are developed, in order to make them available to current and future research programs aimed at obtaining plants with high quality protein source In maize grain, the protein and energy content is concentrated mostly in the endosperm, distributed in the farinaceous and vitreous regions, in which vitreousness refers to the amount of vitreous endosperm on the total endosperm (1010 Xu A, Lin L, Guo K, Liu T, Yin Z, Wei C. Physicochemical properties of starches from vitreous and floury endosperms from the same maize kernels. Food Chemistry. 2019; 291: 149-156. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.2019.04.024
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.201...
).

Thus, the present work has as main objective to evaluate, based on physical and chemical components, the behavior of genetic variability of traditional varieties of maize grown on non-flooded and floodplain areas, in the regional Vale do Juruá, state of Acre.

2. Material and methods

The study was conducted in the western extremity of the state of Acre, regional Juruá Valley, which is formed by the municipalities of Cruzeiro do Sul, Mâncio Lima, Rodrigues Alves, Porto Walter and Marechal Thaumaturgo (1111 Souza JML, Álvares VS, Nóbrega MS, Nobre I. Farinha de mandioca de Cruzeiro do Sul: características da identidade regional para a indicação geográfica. In: Souza JML, Álvares VS, Nóbrega MS, editores. Indicação geográfica da farinha de mandioca de Cruzeiro do Sul, Acre. Brasília, DF: Embrapa; 2017. p. 37-51.). The region is composed of soils developed from sediments related to the Juruá river basin, with coarser texture (sandy), which gives them good drainage conditions, despite contributing to their dystrophism (1212 Araújo EA, Ker JC, Amaral EF, Lani JL. Potencialidades, restrições e alternativas sustentáveis de uso da terra no Acre. 1 ed. Curitiba, PR: Editora CRV; 2011. 106p.). The predominant climate of this regional is the subtype Af, in which the annual rainfall varies between 2,000 mm and 2,500 mm, with the most rainfall areas of Acre, the average maximum temperature is 27.7 oC and the minimum is 22,2 oC (1313 Amaral EF, Martorano LG, Bergo CL, Moraes JRSC, Lunz AMP, Souza LP, Araújo EA, Bardales NG, Lima MN. Condições agroclimáticas para subsidiar cultivos do café canéfora no Acre. In: Bergo CL, Bardales NG. Editores. Zoneamento edafoclimático para o cultivo do café canéfora (coffea canephora) no Acre. Brasília, DF: Embrapa; 2018. p. 49-88.).

The study was conducted with 12 traditional varieties of maize (V1, V2, V3, V4, V5, V6, V7, V8, V9, V10, V11 and V12), harvested after drying in the field and from planting already installed in the region in non-flooded and floodplain areas (Table 1). Each variety was collected in different properties, where the producers themselves are the holders of the seeds that were passed from generation to generation. The varieties collected were classified based on grain color in yellowish, yellowish/orange and reddish according to the criteria of Mattar et al.(1414 Mattar EPL, Silva AMC; OLIVEIRA, K.A.; FRADE JUNIOR, E.F.; CRUZ, L.R. Cultivares tradicionais de milho do vale do Juruá, Acre, Brasil. Disponível em: http://www.ufac.br/site/noticias/2019/campus-floresta-lanca-poster-sobre-cultivaresde-milho. Acesso em: 20/09/2019

) and Teixeira et al. (1515 Teixeira FF, Costa FM. Caracterização de Recursos Genéticos de Milho. Sete Lagoas, MG: Embrapa Milho e Sorgo; 2010. 10p. (Comunicado Técnico, n° 185).).

For the characterization of the centesimal composition (chemical analysis), the samples were dried in an oven at 105 C for 24 hours and crushed in a Willey mill, in sieves with 1 mm screen. Then were analyzed to determine the composition in dry matter (DM, %), mineral matter (MM, %), crude protein (CP, %), ether extract (EE, %), crude energy (EB, kcal/ kg), according to procedures described by Silva and Queiroz (1616 Silva DJ, Queiroz AC. Análise de alimentos: métodos químicos e biológicos. 3 ed. Viçosa, MG: UFV; 2002. 235p.). Starch (AMD, %) was obtained by the sum of the carbohydrates amylose and amylopectin present in the product, and its measurement is expressed in grams of starch per 100 grams of product.

In vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD, %) was determined according to the two-step method proposed by Tilley and Terry (1717 Tilley JMA, Terry RA. A two-stage technique for the in vitro digestion of forage crops. Journal British of Grassland Society. 1963; 18(2): 104-111. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2494.1963.tb00335.x
http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2494.19...
). While neutral detergent fiber (NDF, %) was calculated according to the methodology proposed by Van Soest et al. (1818 Van Soest, PJ, Robertson JB, Lewis B. (1991). A Methods for dietary fiber, neutral detergent fiber, and nonstarch polysaccharides in relation to animal nutrition. Journal of Dairy Science. 1991; 74(10): 3583-3597. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.3168/jds.S0022-0302(91)78551-2
http://dx.doi.org/10.3168/jds.S0022-0302...
). The physical characteristics analyzed were grain density (DSD, g/cm3) according to Kniep and Mason (1919 Kniep KR. Mason SC. Kernel breakage and density of normal and opaque-2 maize grain as influenced by irrigation and nitrogen. Crop Science.1989; 29(1): 159-163. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.2135/cropsci1989.0011183X002900010035x
http://dx.doi.org/10.2135/cropsci1989.00...
) ) and vitreousness (VIT, %), by the method of manual grain dissection (2020 Dombrink-Kurtzman MA, Bietz JA. Zein composition in hard and soft endosperm of maize. Cereal Chemistry. 1993;70(1): 105-108.), in which 100 grains of each cultivar were randomly selected and divided into 10 groups, visually homogeneous in grain size and shape. Vitreousness was determined on one from each randomly selected group. After immersion in distilled water for 3 minutes, the grains were dried with paper towel and the pericarp and germ, removed with scalpel leaving only the total endosperm, which was weighed. Then the farinaceous endosperm was removed and the weight of the remaining vitreous endosperm was expressed as a percentage of the total endosperm.

For all characteristics evaluated, the analyzes were performed involving five replications, and each repetition was considered 5 grams of grain from the ears collections of each variety. Therefore, data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, associated with multivariate principal component analysis (PCA) to detect grouping among maize varieties. The data were analyzed using the software R version 4.1.1 (2121 R Development Core Team. R: A Language and Environment for Statistical Computing. R Foundation for Statistical Computing. versão 4.1.1. Vienna, Austria; 2018.), methodology described in the work of Schmitz et al. (2222 Schmitz D, Villa PM, Schaefer CEGR, Francelino MR. Avaliação de gradiente pedoambiental usando análise de componentes principais (PCA) na antártica marítima. In: Diniz ES, Villa PM. organizadores. Aplicação da linguagem R em análises de vegetação. Ponta Grossa, PR: Atena; 2020. p. 43-55.).

3. Results and discussion

Through principal component analysis (PCA) it was observed that there are strong relationships between the variables studied, because the first two axes were responsible for 70% of the total variation of the data (Figure 1a), in which the variability explained by these axes is therefore, highly significant, since most of the variation and patterns of the data are limited to PCA1 and PCA2, which can be summarized in biplot scatter charts (2323 Lever J, Krzywinski M, Altman N. Principal componente analysis. Nat Methods. 2017; 14(7): 641-642. doi: https://doi.org/10.1038/nmeth.4346
https://doi.org/10.1038/nmeth.4346...
).

Figure 1

Figure 1a shows the distribution of the varieties in 3 distinct groups that are to the right and left of the PCA1. In group 1 (lower right side of the graph) was composed of V3 and V6, which are characterized by presenting grains of reddish colors, while group 2, by varieties V2, V4, V5, V7, V8, V9, V10 and V11, with grains predominantly yellow-orange colors. Group 3 (upper right side of figure 1) is formed by V1 and V12 of yellowish grains, and is characterized by a transition between group 1 and 2, as it shares both high values of DM, MM, EB, DSD, AMD as well as low values for NDF, VIT, IVDMD and EE. With the exception of group 1, whose varieties are grown on dry land, groups 2 and 3 were represented by mixture of varieties collected on non-flooded and floodplain areas. Regarding the place of cultivation, the mixture of varieties occurs because farmers use the same seeds both for planting in dry land as well as in floodplain area, because the planting window in these environments in the regional Juruá occurs in different months. In addition, producers sell maize seeds in local markets, in which floodplain área maize seeds can be purchased and planted on dry land or the reverse may occur.

One of the characteristics that influenced the division was the grain texture, since the VIT values of 79.28% (V3) and 79.46% (V6) observed in Table 2, classifies the grains of this group in hard texture (Flint) presence of vitreous endosperm in relation to total endosperm. Hardness is a physical characteristic that influences the quality and processing of maize grains (2424 Piovesan V, Oliveira V, Gewehr CE. Milhos com diferentes texturas de endosperma e adição de alfa-amilase na dieta de leitões. Ciência Rural. 2011; 41(11): 2014-2019. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0103-84782011005000134.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0103-84782011...
), and has a strong relationship with grain density and susceptibility to attack by pests and diseases (2525 Suleiman R, Willians D, Nissen A, Bern CJ, Rosentrater, KA. (2015). flint corn naturally resistant to sitophilus Zeamais infestation?.Journal of Stored Products Researc. 2015; 60:19. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jspr.2014.10.007
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jspr.2014.10...
). Therefore, in Brazil, due to the origin of the germplasms used and the objectives of breeding programs, the cultivation of maize with hard texture endosperm predominates (2626 Pinho RGV, Santos AO, Pinho IVV. Botânica. In: Borém, A, Galvão JCC, Pimentel MA. editores. Milho do plantio à colheita. 2. ed. Viçosa: UFV; 2017. p. 25-49.). This affinity for hard grains implies directly in less action of digestive enzymes, and consequently can reduce the degradability of starch causing a lower digestibility (2727 Costa FMJ, Dias Júnior GS, Zacaroni OF, Santos JF, Pereira RAN, Pereira MN. Silagem de grãos úmidos de milho de textura dura ou macia em dietas com polpa cítrica para vacas em lactação. Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2014; 66(1): 203-210. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0102-09352014000100028
http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0102-09352014...
). However, hard grains have higher protein content compared to grains with pharyngeal consistency, that is, those with lower VIT and DSD (2828 Nguna E, Murayama D, Munthali C, Onishi K, Mori M, Tani M, Palta JP, Koaze H, Aiuchi D. Effect of kernel type on hardness and interrelationship with endosperm chemical components of Malawian local maize (Zea mays L.) varieties during storage. African Journal of Agricultural Research. 2020; 16(10): 1449-1457. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.5897/AJAR2020.15019
http://dx.doi.org/10.5897/AJAR2020.15019...
).

Table 2
Average values of the chemical and physical composition of the grains based on dry matter.

Observing the results of Table 2, it is noticed that in group 2 and 3 the varieties presented lower values of VIT and DSD in relation to those of group 1, which had higher digestibility, higher proportions of starch and available energy, but lower contents of CP. Thus, the higher digestibility in the varieties of these groups can be derived from the reduced presence of a protein matrix that surrounds the starch granules, resulting in vague spaces between these structures within the cells in the endosperm, thus facilitating the enzymatic attack (2929 Rossi ES, Faria MV, Mendes MC, Possatto Junior O, Faria CMDR Silva, CA, Vaskoski VL, Andrade JM, Gava E. Microscopia do amido e digestibilidade de grãos em híbridos de milho silageiros com diferentes vitreosidades. Revista Brasileira de Milho e Sorgo. 2016; 15(3): 607-618. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.18512/rbms.v15i3.662
http://dx.doi.org/10.18512/rbms.v15i3.66...
).

Considering the CP content, the values in this study ranged from 8.4 to 9.13%, denoting that the VIT correlated positively with the CP content (Figure 2), because the varieties with higher VIT also presented higher CP, the same trend observed by Rossi et al. (3030 Rossi ES, Faria MV, Mendes MC, Neumann M, Gabriel A, Conte MVD. Bromatological characteristics and ruminal digestibility of grain corn hybrids with different vitreousness in silage maturity. Acta Scientiarum. Agronomy. 2016; 38(3): 337-344. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.4025/actasciagron.v38i3.28703
http://dx.doi.org/10.4025/actasciagron.v...
). The differences observed in the CP content may be related to differences in the nitrogen uptake efficiency available in the soil for the plant (3131 Assis FB, Basso FC, Lara EC, Raposo E, Bertipaglia LMA, Fernandes, LO, Rabelo CHS, Reis RA. Caracterização agronômica e bromatológica de híbridos de milho para ensilagem. Semina: Ciências Agrárias. 2014; 35(6): 2869-2882. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.5433/1679-0359.2014v35n6p2869
http://dx.doi.org/10.5433/1679-0359.2014...
), since the tropical grasses have high response potential to nitrogen fertilization (3232 Viana MCM, Freire FM, Ferreira JJ, Macêdo AR, Canrarutti RB, Mascarenhas MHT. Adubação nitrogenada na produção e composição química do capim braquiária sob pastejo rotacionado. Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia. 2011; 40(7): 1497-1503. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1516-35982011000700014
http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1516-35982011...
).

Figure 2
Pearson correlation between the chemical and physical variables of the grains.

Regarding the average starch contents, the values ranged from 72.53 to 72.52% in group 1, 71.97% to 75.72% in group 2 and 74.53% to 75.04% in group 3, indicating an increase in starch content as the VIT decreases. This relationship is in agreement with the study of Pineda-Hidalgo et al. (3333 Pineda-Hidalgo KV, Vega-Alvarez E, Calderon-Zamora L, Salazar-Salas NY, Gutierrez-Dorado R, Reyes-Moreno C, Bello-Perez LA, Lopez-Valenzuela, J.A. (2015). Physicochemical, structural, and proteomic analysis of starch granules from maize landraces of Northwest Mexico. Cereal Chemistry. 2015; 92(3): 320-326. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1094/CCHEM-05-14-0099-R
http://dx.doi.org/10.1094/CCHEM-05-14-00...
), in which it was highlighted that the starch content has a negative correlation with grain hardness. Starch is the main composition of cereal seeds (3434 Yang J, Fu M, Ji C, Huang Y, Wu Y. Maize Oxalyl-CoA Decarboxylase1 Degrades Oxalate and Affects the Seed Metabolome and Nutritional Quality. The Plant Cell. 2018; 30(10): 2447-2462. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1105/tpc.18.00266
http://dx.doi.org/10.1105/tpc.18.00266...
), and in maize culture, for greater accessibility of microorganisms to the granules of this carbohydrate, has been used the ensiling technique, for favoring the partial solubilization of the protein matrix of the grains facilitating the access of microorganisms (3535 Hoffman PC, Esser NM, Shver RD, Coblentz WK, Scott MP, Bodnar AL, Schmidt RJ, Charley, R.C. Influence of ensiling time and inoculation on alteration of the starch-protein matrix in high-moisture corn. Journal of Dairy Science. 2011; 94(5): 2465-2474. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.3168/jds.2010-3562
http://dx.doi.org/10.3168/jds.2010-3562...
).

An important feature in the evaluation of silage quality is the percentage of NDF, which represents the fraction of structural carbohydrates contained in food and its composition is related to dry matter intake (DM) (3636 Geron LJV, Cabral LS, Trautmann-Machado RJ, Zeoula LM, Oliveira EB, Garcia J, Gonçalves MR, Aguiar RPS. Avaliação do teor de fibra em detergentes neutros e ácido por meio de diferentes procedimentos aplicados às plantas forrageiras. Semina: Ciências Agrárias.2014; 35(3): 1533-1542. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.5433/1679-0359.2014v35n3p1533
http://dx.doi.org/10.5433/1679-0359.2014...
). In this context, the NDF content varied from 9.38 to 9.53% in group 1, from 8.72 to 8.74% in group 2 and 8.74 to 8.70% in group 3 lower than those found by Zilic et al. (3737 Zilic S, Milasinovic M, Terzic D, Barac M, Ignjatovic-Micic. Grain characteristics and composition of maize specialty hybrids. Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research. 2011; 9(1): 230-241. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.5424/SJAR/20110901-053-10
http://dx.doi.org/10.5424/SJAR/20110901-...
), variation from 11.02 to 14.72% of NDF. This inferiority of NDF will provide a higher grain digestibility, due to the present fibrous content is much lower. In addition, the concentration of NDF in the diet is negatively correlated with the energy concentration, that is, the lower NDF, the higher the energy content of the food (3838 Medeiros SR, Marino CT. Carboidratos na nutrição de gado de corte. In: Medeiros SR, Gomes RC, Bungenstab DJ. editores. Nutrição de bovinos de corte: fundamentos e aplicações. Brasília, DF: Embrapa; 2015. p. 45-62.). This correlation was observed in this study (Figure 2), in which the varieties of group 2 that presented lower NDF content obtained respectively higher EB values.

As for the dry mass of grains (DM), there was a trend of higher values in varieties 3 and 6 (91%) (Table 2). Overall, the mean DM ranged from 88.61 to 91.2% (V7 and V6, respectively), whose variation may be related to the physical characteristics of the grains, since grains with pharyngeal endosperm have a less compacted cell structure. With this, there are air gaps between starch granules which allows moisture to remain longer in the endosperm (2929 Rossi ES, Faria MV, Mendes MC, Possatto Junior O, Faria CMDR Silva, CA, Vaskoski VL, Andrade JM, Gava E. Microscopia do amido e digestibilidade de grãos em híbridos de milho silageiros com diferentes vitreosidades. Revista Brasileira de Milho e Sorgo. 2016; 15(3): 607-618. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.18512/rbms.v15i3.662
http://dx.doi.org/10.18512/rbms.v15i3.66...
). The moisture level in maize grains is considered an important parameter, because in conditions of high temperatures, long-term storage and high moisture contents potentiate contamination by fungi, which produce mycotoxins (3939 Henz JR, Nunes RV, Pozza PC, Furlan AC, Schere, C, Eyng C, Silva WTM. Valor energético de diferentes cultivares de milho para aves. Revista Semina: Ciências Agrárias. 2013; 34(5): 2403-2412. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.5433/1679-0359.2013v34n5p2403
http://dx.doi.org/10.5433/1679-0359.2013...
).

In the mean values of EE and MM, there was variation between varieties, in which the average values ranged from 2.86 to 2.97% for EE and 0.91% to 1.07% for MM. Vásquez-Carrillo et al. (4040 Vázquez-Carrilo G, García-Lara S, Salinas-Moreno Y, Bergvinson DJ, Placios-Rojas N. Grain na tortilla quality in landraces na improved maize grown in the highlands of Mexico. Plant Foods For Human Nutrition. 2011; 66(1): 203-208. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11130-011-0231-7
http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11130-011-023...
) in a study with 11 local varieties of Mexican maize, concluded that the average oil contents were 4.9% for local maize, 3.7% for white hybrids and 3.2% for yellow hybrids, values higher than those verified in this study. Although the total fat levels of the grains studied are relatively low, the presence of linolenic fatty acids makes maize oil extremely important in the diet for influencing the prevention of cardiovascular diseases and the fight against cholesterol (4141 Tighe P, Duthie G, Vaughan N, Brittenden J, Simpson WG, Duthie S, Mutch W, Wahle K, Horgan G, Thies F. Effect of increased consumption of whole-grain foods on blood pressure and other cardiovascular riak marker in healthy middle-aged person: a randomized controlled trial. The American Journal Of Clinical Nutrition. 2010; 92(4): 733-740. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.3945/ajcn.2010.29417
http://dx.doi.org/10.3945/ajcn.2010.2941...
). However, these contents can be affected by environmental and genetic factors (4242 Sánchez-Toledano BI, Kallas Z, Gil JM. Importancia de los objetivos sociales, ambientales y económicos de los agricultores en la adopción de maíz mejorado em Chiapas, México. Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias. 2017; 49(2): 269-287.) and the form of processing, and lipid elimination may occur by oxidation (4343 Dongmo H, Tambo ST, Teboukeu GB, Mboukap AN, Fotso BS, Djuidje MCT, Klang JM. (2020). Effect of process and variety on physic-chemical and rheological properties of two corn flour varieties (Atp an Kassai). Journal of Agriculture and Food Research. 2020; 2:10075. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jafr.2020.100075
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jafr.2020.10...
).

Regarding the content of MM material in the grains, it is observed that they are close to those obtained by Pekel et al. (4444 Perkel AY, Çalik A, Alatas MS, Kuter E, Cengiz O, Omurtag GZ, Inan G. Evaluation of correlations between nutrientes, fatty acids, heavy, and deoxynivalenol in corn (Zea mays L.). Journal of Applied Poultry Research. 2019; 28(1): 94-107. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.3382/japr/pfy023
http://dx.doi.org/10.3382/japr/pfy023...
) that evaluated the chemical composition of maize grains, the contents ranged from 0.8 to 1.3 %. In general, millet grains are rich in minerals magnesium, potassium and phosphorus and are mostly accumulated in the germ (99 Nuss ET, Tanumihardjo SA. Maize: a paramount staple crop in the context of global nutrition. Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety. 2010; 9(4): 417-436. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1541-4337.2010.00117.x
http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1541-4337.20...
). The MM content is considered as a legal quality measure and used as a criterion in food identification (4545 Mesquita FR, Lima MO, Araújo JM, Ribeiro OAS, Craveiro RL. Composição centesimal de frutos típicos da região do Vale do Juruá-Amazônia Ocidental. Enciclopédia Biosfera. 2014; 10(19): 2849-2857.). However, the percentages of MM from plant products provide little information about their composition, not being an indicator to distinguish the varieties (4646 Lim S, Yi G. Investigating seed mineral composition in Korean landrace maize (Zea mays L.) and its kernel textura specificity. Journal Of Integrative Agriculture. 2019; 18(9): 1996-2005. Disponível em: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S2095-3119(18)62055-6
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S2095-3119(18)...
). In maize, the stress conditions represented by water deficit and nutritional deficiency affect the absorption of nutrients and influence the productivity and qualities of the grains, differences in MM levels observed in the present study may be associated with these factors.

4. Conclusion

The traditional varieties cultivated on non-flooded and floodplain areas, present variations in relation to the physical and chemical analyses. The varieties with yellow and orange-yellow grains were associated with greater presence of energy, starch and digestibility. However, the reddish ones are sharing higher protein value, vitreousness and density. Therefore, it is observed that in the Juruá region, the traditional maize varieties presented diversity in their composition and that future studies considering soil, plant and climate factors are necessary for a better understanding and use of these materials.
