Mass-propagation of Yacon (Polymnia sonchifolia) by repeated node culture.
Plant tissue culture letters, 1990 Mass-propagation of Yacon (Polymnia sonchifolia) was investigated by using the in vitro node culture method. Continuous axillary shoot formation was achieved by repeating node culture every 4-5 weeks in a MS medium supplemented with 0.1mg/l BA. Roots were formed from all the shoots within 2 weeks in this MS medium.

Efeito do extrato aquoso de folhas de Polymnia sonchifolia (yacon) em ratas diabéticas [PDF]
, 2014 Polymnia sonchifolia is a medicinal plant used as hypoglycemic agent and other ends. The aim was to evaluate the yacon effect on diabetes in Wistar female rats, which was divided in 4 groups: non-diabetic (n=24) given (gavage) 32.4 mg kg -1 of an aqueous extract of plant (treated group) or vehicle (non-treated group), and one diabetic group (n=24) with

Isolation and Structural Analysis of Oligosaccharides from Yacon (Polymnia sonchifolia) [PDF]
Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 1995 Oligosaccharides (from trisaccharide to decasaccharide) in yacon tuberous roots were purified by charcoal-Celite column and gel filtration chromatographies. The oligosaccharides were confirmed to be β-(2→1)fructooligosaccharides with terminal sucrose (inulin type oligofructans) by using enzymatic, 13C-NMR, and methylation analyses.

INHIBITION OF AFLATOXIN PRODUCTION BY POLYMNIA SONCHIFOLIA AND ITS IN VITRO CYTOTOXICITY
Arquivos do Instituto Biológico, 2003 ABSTRACT Polymnia sonchifolia is used popularly in the control of diabetes mellitus and also should contain some antifungical and pesticidal compounds. Thus the ethanolic extract (EE) from P. sonchifolia leaves and its hexanic (HE), chloroformic (CL), ethyl acetate (EA) and methanolic (ME) fractions were tested to investigate the inhibitory activity on

In Vitro Propagation of Jícama (Polymnia sonchifolia Poeppig & Endlicher): A Neglected Andean Crop [PDF]
HortScience, 1994 Polymnia sonchifolia, a Composite commonly referred to as jicama, yacon, or aricoma, is an Andean distant relative of the sunflower. Jicama is grown for its edible tubers that usually are eaten raw. Its flavor has been described as similar to a fresh-picked apple with a sweet taste reminiscent of watermelon (National Research Council, 1989).
