Proso millet is rich in nutrition and low in glycemic index,in recent years,more and more attention has been paid to the development of millet resources.The existing research shows that starch,as the main component of proso millet,has great influences on the physical and chemical properties and the quality of millet products.The article reviews the multiscale structure of proso millet starch from three aspects including particle morphology,molecular structure and crystallization properties,and analyzes the physical and chemical properties of proso millet starch from four aspects containing ge-latinization properties,enthalpy properties,rheological properties,and in vitro digestion.The differences in multi-scale structure and physical and chemical properties between non-waxy proso millet starch and waxy proso millet starch were compared,and the relationship between the structural charac-teristics and physical and chemical properties of proso millet starch were also explored.At the same time,it was pointed out that there is still insufficient research on the relationship between the multi-scale structure and physical and chemical properties of proso millet starch,and there is a lack of sys-tematic comparison between the multi-scale structure and physical and chemical properties of different varieties of proso millet starch.This review aims at providing a basic theoretical reference for the development and utilization of proso millet resources.
