Effect of household processing on nutritional and antinutritional composition, mineral-mineral ratios, and functional properties of Colocasia leaves

Heliyon, 2023
Colocasia leaves are high in nutrients and other phytochemicals but their utilization remains limited due to a lack of awareness. Higher content of anti-nutritional factors like oxalic and tannic acid in Colocasia leaves limit nutrient availability.

Sphingomonas colocasiae sp. nov., isolated from taro (Colocasia esculanta)

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2018
A polyphasic approach was used to characterize an aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped bacterium (designed as strain CC-MHH0539T) isolated from the chopped tuber of taro (Colocasia esculanta) in Taiwan. Strain CC-MHH0539T was able to grow at 15-30 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 6.0-9.0 (optimum, 7.0) and with 0-1 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain CC-MHH0539T showed
