This study was conducted to evaluate the biological activities of sweet potato tips and tubers. Antioxidant activity of 2,2‐azino‐bis 93‐ethlbenzothiazoline‐6‐sulphonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) and 1,1‐diphenyl‐2‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities had the highe...
Sweet potato originated in Mexico and tropical America from Columbia to Ecuador to Peru. A.von Humboldt quoted Columbo as the first time to see queen of Spain. The sweet potato that had been brought back from the new continent was given to the queen. ...
China is the world’s largest producer of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.). Considering that there are numerous sweet potato-producing regions in China and sweet potato is a vegetatively propagated crop, the genetic diversity of sweet potato viruses could be high in the country. Howev...
Archaeological, historical, and biological studies have shown that Latin America is the key diversity center of sweet potato germplasm resources, also considered the most likely origin center of sweet potato [17, 18]. Clarke [19], Green [20], Roullier et al. [21], and Yen [22] have hypot...
Biological control of sweet potato weevil usingBeauveria bassianawas found to be as effective as chemical control (Hlerema et al.,2017). Visser (2015) indicated key pests of sweet potato as white grub [Temnorhynchus coronatus(Fabricius)], spotted tortoise beetle [Conchyloctenia punctata(Fabricius...
In subject area: Agricultural and Biological Sciences Sweet potato chlorotic stunt virus (SPCSV) is a crinivirus transmitted by Bemisia tabaci that encodes a dsRNA- specific class 1 RNA endoribonuclease III (RNase3) that suppresses RNAi.
Cryopreservation can solve these issues as it allows to store plant genetic resources at ultra-low temperatures where biological, enzymatic and chemical activities are halted. This causes the tissue to be suspended in time as long as it is kept at these temperatures16. For sweet potato, some rep...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small regulatory RNAs, have been proven to play important roles in plant growth, development and stress responses. Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is an important food and industrial crop that ranks seventh in staple food
