High-throughput characterization and phenotyping of resistance and tolerance to virus infection in sweetpotato

Virus Research, 2023
Highlights • Sweetpotato is classified in resistance categories by yield loss and virus load.• Rapid isothermal amplification was accurate to confirm virus load.• Sweetpotato resistance can be accurately predicted using remotely sensed data.

Development of SNP markers using RNA-seq technology and tetra-primer ARMS-PCR in sweetpotato

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2017
The information of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) is quite unknown in sweetpotato. In this study, two sweetpotato varieties (Xushu 18 and Xu 781) were sequenced by Illumina technology, as well as de novo transcriptome assembly, functional ...

Constraints and breeding priorities for increased sweetpotato utilization in Ghana [PDF]

, 2016
Sweetpotato is used in various food preparations in place of rice, cassava, yam and plantain in Ghana. In spite of this it does not have the same importance in Ghanaian diet as other root and tuber crops.

Surveying the Sweetpotato Rhizosphere, Endophyte, and Surrounding Soil Microbiomes at Two North Carolina Farms Reveals Underpinnings of Sweetpotato Microbiome Community Assembly

Phytobiomes Journal, 2019
Farmers grow sweetpotatoes worldwide and some sub-Saharan African and Asian diets include sweetpotato as a staple, yet the sweetpotato microbiome is conspicuously less studied relative to crops such as maize, soybean, and wheat.
