  1. Profiling phytochemical and nutritional components of potato

    Valcarcel Barroso, JesusUniversity College Cork2014

    … phenolics, flavonoids, antioxidant activity and glycoalkaloids were determined, using spectroscopy and chromatography, in the skin and flesh of tubers grown in field trials. Transcript levels of key synthetic enzymes were assessed by qPCR. Accumulation of selected metabolites was higher in the …

  3. Metabolic Profiling of Genetically Modified Potato Periderm Tissues

    Jin, LiqingThe Graduate School and University Center of The City University of New York2018

    … in the non-polar extracts. Phenolic acids, glycoalkaloids, alkanes (C21, C23, C25, C27, C29) and fatty acids (C16:0, C18:0, C18:2) were down-regulated in FHT-RNAi native periderms. For the solid interfacial residue, the FHT-RNAi variety displayed higher arene-to-(CH2)n and oxygenated …

  4. Three genes from Solanum chacoense coding for squalene synthase

    Wadlington, William HerringVirginia Tech2011

    … cholesterol, and in potato plants, steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs). These compounds have diverse functions in the plant. SGAs are defense compounds that deter feeding by potato pests. The wild potato Solanum chacoense accumulates higher amounts of SGAs than cultivated potato and some of its …

  5. Biosynthesis of Steroidal Glycoakaloids in Solanum chacoense Bitter

    Mweetwa, Alice MutitiVirginia Tech2009

    Steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs) are secondary metabolites produced by approximately 350 species in the Solanaceae family. SGAs are reported to be important for pest resistance and flavor enhancement at low concentrations but are toxic to humans and other mammals at high concentrations. Studies on …

  6. Genetic studies of candidate genes in the glycoalkaloid biosynthetic pathway of potato

    Manrique Carpintero, Norma ConstanzaVirginia Tech2013

    … with biosynthesis and accumulation of steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs). SGAs are secondary metabolites produced in Solanum species as defense against insects and pathogens. Fragments of genomic DNA coding for regions of five SGA biosynthetic candidate genes were amplified, cloned and sequenced …
