Orange‐fleshed sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) composite bread as a significant source of dietary vitamin A
Refining food recipes with orange-fleshed sweet potato (OFSP) has the potential to improve dietary intake of vitamin A. The objectives of this study were to utilize OFSP in the development of two composite bread types and to assess their contribution to dietary intake of vitamin A using the dietary reference intake of lactating mothers. Two composite OFSP-wheat flour bread recipes-vita butter b...
متن کاملAn improved method of isolation of high quality total RNA from purple-fleshed sweet potato, Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.
To isolate high quality total RNA from plants of purple-fleshed sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L. Lam) is difficult because these plants contain high levels of carbohydrates and pigment compounds. In this study, we developed a quick and reliable method for total RNA extraction. Using this extraction protocol, which was derived from the traditional CTAB method with modification, we obtained high ...

متن کاملCharacterization and development of EST-SSR markers in sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam)
In this study, a cDNA library was constructed from the total RNA of sweet potato leaves. A total of 789 copies of the cDNA were cloned in Escherichia coli by employing the pGEM-T Easy vector. Sequencing was carried out by Solgent Co. (Korea). As many as 579 expressed sequence tag-simple sequence repeat (EST-SSR) markers were designed (73.38%) from the known cDNA nucleotide base sequences. The l...
