| Abstract:
Eating quality, processing suitability, and nutritional value of sweet potato roots are largely affected by their chemical composition. Many researchers have studied free sugars, carotenoids, and amino acids of sweet potato storage root in some limited cultivars. However, the varietal differences of these compounds are still obscure. Thus, we investigated varietal differences of these compounds of sweet potato storage roots by HPLC. | |
