Zinc in potato production
Zinc deficiencies have been reported from the states of Washington, Idaho, North Dakota and Texas. The deficiencies are reported to be localized in areas where the parent material of soil is low in zinc content or where the topsoil has been removed by landleveling or lost through erosion. There is …

Improving Uniformity of Potato Crops
Within potato crops some tubers are too small or too large to be marketable. There are economic and environmental incentives to improve uniformity, thereby increasing the fraction of yield that is marketable. The potato crop has a complex, three-tiered population structure consisting of plants, …

Nonstarch polysaccharides in sweet potato
… of the non-starch polysaccharides in sweet potato was determined and their flatulence-inducing potential evaluated. A preparative adaptation of the AOAC enzymatic method was used to isolate the insoluble and soluble non-starch polysaccharides. The insoluble non-starch fraction was mainly …

Sucrose breakdown in the potato tuber
In dieser Arbeit wurden verschiedene Ansätze verfolgt, um das Verständnis des Saccharose-zu-Stärke Stoffwechselweges in sich entwickelnden Kartoffelknollen zu untersuchen. Zunächst wurde ein induzierbares Genexpressions-System aus dem Schimmelpilz Aspergillus nidulans für die Untersuchung des …

AFLP Marker Analysis Of Monoploid Potato
Potato haploids have been recent components in protoplast fusion research, strategies to combine wild and cultivated potato germplasm and the generation of economically valuable mutant phenotypes. Additionally, most major genetic mapping and QTL analyses in potato have utilized haploid germplasm to …

Profiling phytochemical and nutritional components of potato
Potatoes (Solanum Tuberosum L.) contain secondary metabolites that may have an impact on human health. The aim of this study was to assess the levels of some of these compounds in a wide range of varieties, including rare, heritage and commercial cultivars. Vitamin C, total carotenoids, phenolics, …

Studies of androgenic processes in diploid potato
Androgenic processes in diploid potato (2n=2x=24) were studied in three interspecific hybrids. Five incubation temperature treatments were examined. Temperature shock (35°C) during the first 12 h of anther culture and elevated incubation temperature (30°C 16h/20°C 8h) (hereafter 35°C-30°C/20°C) …

Interactions between nematodes, potato and soil-borne micro-organisms and their effect on the management of potato cyst nematodes
Potato cyst nematodes (PCN) cause significant damage to the potato crop worldwide and growers experience economic losses related to yield loss and the cost of control measures. Experiments were set up to further elucidate the complex tritrophic PCNpotato-soil bacteria relationship. Bacterial …

Development of genome editing in potato and tobacco
Potato (Solanum tuberosum) is the third most important food crop in the world (Dongyu, 2022). Fifty to sixty percent of global potato production is intended for human consumption (Raji, 2020) and is shifting from fresh potatoes to processed food products (Devaux et al., 2020). However, the potato …

Metabolic Profiling of Genetically Modified Potato Periderm Tissues
<p>Potato tubers are protected from dehydration and pathogens by a covering peel (periderm) impregnated with suberin, a complex cross-linked biopolymer that contains both polyaliphatic and lignin-like aromatic domains. Current models describing the macromolecular structure of suberin assume that …

Lactic Acid Production Using Sweet Potato Processing Waste
<p>Organic waste generated from industrial sweet potato canning is estimated to be 30% of incoming raw material. This waste contains carbohydrates (sugars and starch) that could be used as substrates for the production of useful compounds via fermentation (e.g. lactic acid), resulting in the …
