THE USE OF SWEET POTATO (Ipomoea batatas, (L) Lam) IN ANIMAL FEEDING II BEEF PRODUCTION
3.5 ha of sweet potato were used to feed 30 crossbred Brahman bulls with an average weight of 184 kg and approximately one year old in an experiment to study the use of sweet potato in beef production. The five treatments were allocated to the experimental units in an unrestricted randomized block design. Treatments contained 0:100, 25:75, 75:25, 50:50 ant 100:0 ratios of tubers to sweet potato...
متن کاملDisentangling the Origins of Cultivated Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.)
Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam., Convolvulaceae) counts among the most widely cultivated staple crops worldwide, yet the origins of its domestication remain unclear. This hexaploid species could have had either an autopolyploid origin, from the diploid I. trifida, or an allopolyploid origin, involving genomes of I. trifida and I. triloba. We generated molecular genetic data for a broad ...
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...
متن کاملThe resin glycosides from the sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L. LAM.).
Four new and two known ether-soluble resin glycosides were isolated from popular sweet potato (the roots of Ipomoea batatas L. LAM., Kokei 14 go, Convolvulaceae) in Japan. Unlike ester-type dimers, batatins I and II, obtained from other sweet potato (Ipomoea batabas var. batatas), the glycosides were tetra or pentasaccharide monomers in which the sugar moieties are partially acylated by organic...
متن کاملAntioxidant and antiproliferative activities of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas [L.] Lam ‘Tainong 57’) constituents
The aim of this study is to examine possible antioxidant and antiproliferative activities of the different extracts from sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas [L.] Lam ‘Tainong 57’) organs. DPPH staining, total phenolic compounds and flavonoid content, DPPH radical, reducing power method, FTC method, and cell proliferation were all employed. In the DPPH staining, ethanol extract of vein had the highest...
