Lam., is an important food crop worldwide. Large scale evaluation of sweetpotato germplasm for genetic diversity is necessary to determine the genetic relationships between them and effectively use them in the genetic improvement. In this study, the genetic diversity of 617 sweetpotato accessions, including 376landraces and 162 bred varieties from China and 79 introduced varieties from 11 other countries, was assessed using 30 simple sequence repeat(SSR) primer pairs with high polymorphism. Based on the population structure analysis,these sweetpotato accessions were divided into three groups, Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3, which included 228, 136and 253 accessions, respectively. Consistent results were obtained by phylogenic analysis and principal coordinate analysis(PCoA). Of the three groups, Group 2 showed the highest level of genetic diversity and its accessions were mainly distributed in low-latitude regions. The accessions from South China exhibited the highest level of genetic diversity, which supports the hypothesis that Fujian and Guangdong were the first regions where sweetpotato was introduced to China. Analysis of molecular variance(AMOVA) indicated significant genetic differentiations between the different groups, but low levels of genetic differentiation existed between the different origins and accession types.These results provide valuable information for the better utilization of these accessions in sweetpotato breeding.展开更多

Studies have revealed that there are at least fifteen well characterized viruses known to infect sweetpotato of which 10 are economically important that contribute to yield reduction. Planting materials use by farmers are often infected by one or more of these viruses. The aim of this study was to evaluate three different sources of planting materials of different health status for their field performance and virus presence. The sources of planting materials were in vitro generated platelets, symptomless Field materials and Farmer’s materials. Four sweetpotato varieties Apomuden, Bohye, Ligri and Dadanyuie were selected from each source of planting material. The trial was laid in a split plot design with the sources of planting material allocated to main plots and the varieties to sub-plots. The plantlets of the four varieties were planted at Botanga Irrigation Scheme in Northern region of Ghana. Viral symptom scores were taken twice, score 1 being the average from 4 - 7 weeks after planting (WAP) and score 2 being the average from 8 - 11 WAP. Nitrocellulose Membranes Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (NCM-ELISA) kits were employed for the detection of sweetpotato viruses on the field. The source of planting materials significantly influenced (P In vitro generated material showed the least symptoms of virus followed by Field materials. Apomuden and Bohye varieties recorded the highest virus score in the first and second virus symptom observational score respectively. NCM-ELISA revealed that the viruses SPFMV, SPMMV, SPMSV, SPCFV, SPCSV, and CMV were significantly present among the different sources of planting materials. In vitro, Field and Farmer materials recorded NCM-ELISA score of 0.225, 1.075 and 1.500 respectively. Apomuden variety recorded the highest virus score in the assay. Vine and root yield was higher among the in vitro generated material. Farmers should use laboratory cleaned material however, in the absence of such material they should select field material showing no symptom of virus.展开更多

[Method] Under hydroponic conditions in a greenhouse, the effects of exogenous uniconazoIe on physioIogical and biochemical properties of roots of different sweetpotato cuItivars at seedIing stage were analyzed under continuous drought stress simuIated by PEG-6000. [Result] Compared with normal water suppIy treatment （N）, drought treatment （D） decreased significantIy root Iength, root surface area, average root diameter and root voIume of Jishu 21 and Jihei 1; to be specif-ic, compared with Jishu 21, root Iength, root surface area and average root diame-ter of Jihei 1 decreased greatIy, but root voIume of Jihei 1 decreased sIightIy. SOD, POD, APX activities and MDA content of Jishu 21 and Jihei 1 increased, and root vitality of two sweetpotato cuItivars was reduced; to be specific, compared with Jihei 1, Jishu 21 exhibited significantIy improved SOD, POD, APX activities, sIightIy im-proved MDA content and remarkabIy reduced root vitality. IAA, GAs and ZR con-tents of Jishu 21 and Jihei 1 decIined at seedIing stage; ABA content of two sweetpotato cuItivars was improved; to be specific, compared with Jihei 1, IAA, GAs and ZR contents of Jishu 21 were reduced sIightIy, whiIe ABA content of Jishu 21 was improved sIightIy. Under stress conditions, uniconazoIe treatment increased sig-nificantIy root Iength and root surface area of Jihei 1 and increased sIightIy root voIume of Jihei 1 compared with Jishu 21; uniconazoIe treatment increased signifi-cantIy SOD, POD and APX activities and root vitality of Jihei 1 and decIined re-markabIy MDA content of Jihei 1 compared with Jishu 21; uniconazoIe treatment in-creased significantIy IAA, ZR and ABA contents of Jihei 1 compared with Jishu 21. [Conclusion] Drought-toIerant sweetpotato cuItivar Jishu 21 exhibits high pIasma membrane integrity and root vitality by increasing activities of antioxidant enzymes under drought stress and malntalning high contents of IAA, ZR and ABA. Unicona-zoIe exerts greater reguIatory effects on physioIogical and biochemical properties of drought-sensitive sweetpotato cuItivar Jihei 1 under drought stress.展开更多

[Method] Active oxygen, antioxidant substances and antioxidant enzymes in seedling roots of sweetpotato with different drought tolerance were analyzed by hydroponics with PEG-6000 for simulating drought stress in the experiment. [Result] The results showed that under drought stress, H202 content and formation rate of 02_ in seedling roots of Jizishul were higher than Jishu 21 by 1.9% and 102.6%, respectively, the contents of Vc in seed- ing roots of Jizishu 1 and Jizishu 1 increased by 25.3% and 81.1%, respectively, and the contents of polyphenols increased by 24.8% and 37.6% in the two vari- eties, respectively. The increase amplitudes of Jizishu 1 were higher than Jishu 21 in the above indexes. Antioxidant enzyme activities were higher in seedling roots of Jisl^u 21 and Jizishul under drought stress than normal treatments; and among them, POD activity was the highest, while PPO activity was the lowest in all an- tioxidant enzymes. The increases of SOD, POD, APX and PPO activities in Jishu 21 were twice of those in Jizishul. The bands of SOD3, POD2, CAT1, APX2 and PPO2 changed obviously between the drought treatments of the two varieties. [Con- clusion] In conclusion, stronger drought tolerance in sweetpotato results in lower in- crease amplitudes of H202 content, formation rate of 02- and contents of Vc and polyphenols under drought stress, and the activities of antioxidant enzymes are stronger in seeding roots under drought stress; and the differences in antioxidant enzymes are mainly related to the changes of isoenzymes including SOD3, POD2, CAT1. APX2 and PPO2.展开更多

The results showed that vine tip yields of sweetpotato were significantly different among either varieties or topping stages; leaf yield accounted for about 51% of total vine yield, and changes in leaf yield among topping stages were higher than that among varieties; while yields of leaf stalk and stem each accounted for 25% of total vine tip yield, their changes among varieties were higher than those among topping stages. These results revealed the yield composition of vine tip of Leaf-vegetable sweetpotato, which provided scientific references for breeding and cultivating new Leaf-vegetable sweetpotato variety and its industrialization.展开更多
