Effects of Different Temperatures on the Physiological Characteristics of Sweet Potato ( L. Lam) Storage Roots and Growth of Seedlings During the Sprouting and Seedling Period.

Seedling cultivation is the foremost part of sweet potato ( L. Lam) production. It is of great significance to reveal the effects of different temperatures on the nutrients of sweet potato storage roots and their relationship with the sprouting quality and to explore the appropriate temperature management for seedlings.

Genetic diversity evaluation and selection methods of sweet potato hybrid F population based on SSR markers and phenotypic detection.

Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) is a vital global crop, with breeding focused on both high starch and high yield.

Physiological and Transcriptome Responses of Sweet Potato [ (L.) Lam] to Weak-Light Stress.

In the relay intercropping system of maize/sweet potato, the growth of the sweet potatoes is seriously limited by weak light stress in the early stage due to shade from maize plants. However, it is not clear how the weak light affects sweet potatoes and causes tuberous root loss. By setting two light intensity levels (weak light = 30% transmittance of normal light), this study evaluated the responses of two sweet potato cultivars with different tolerances to weak light in a field-based experiment and examined the divergence of gene expression related to light and photosynthesis in a pot-based experiment.

[Multi-scenario Land Use Optimization and Carbon Storage Assessment in Northwest China].

Land use/cover change (LUCC) is the main factor leading to the change in carbon stock of terrestrial ecosystems. Studying the process of land use and carbon storage change under different scenarios in the future will help to formulate scientific land use policies and increase regional terrestrial ecosystem carbon storage. The GMMOP-PLUS-InVEST model was constructed to analyze the change characteristics of land use and carbon storage in northwest China from 2000 to 2020 through multi-source data and to predict the land use and carbon storage in northwest China in 2030 under the scenarios of natural development (ND), economic development (ED), ecological protection (EP), and comprehensive development (CD).

Regulatory and functional divergence among members of , a sweet potato vacuolar invertase gene controlling starch and glucose content.

Sweet potato [ (L.) Lam.] is an important food and industrial crop.

IbInvInh2, a novel invertase inhibitor in sweet potato, regulates starch content through post-translational regulation of vacuolar invertase IbβFRUCT2.

As a key enzyme in the starch and sugar metabolic pathways in sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.), the vacuolar invertase (EC 3.

Application of Grafting Method in Resistance Identification of Sweet Potato Virus Disease and Resistance Evaluation of Elite Sweet Potato [ (L.) Lam] Varieties.

Sweet potato virus disease (SPVD) is one of the main virus diseases in sweet potato [ (L.) Lam] that seriously affects the yield of sweet potato. Therefore, the establishment of a simple, rapid and effective method to detect SPVD is of great significance for the early warning and prevention of this disease.

Lignin-to-chemicals: Application of catalytic hydrogenolysis of lignin to produce phenols and terephthalic acid via metal-based catalysts.

Lignin is the only renewable aromatic material in nature and contains a large number of oxygen-containing functional groups. High-value and green utilization of "lignin-to-chemicals" can be realized via using lignin to produce fine chemicals such as phenols and carboxylic acids, which can not only reduce the waste of lignin in the process of lignocellulosic biomass treatment, but gradually make the substitution of traditional fossil fuels come true. The hydrogenolysis process under catalysis of metal catalyst has high product selectivity and less impurity, which is suitable for the production of same type or single fine chemicals.

The Spread and Transmission of Sweet Potato Virus Disease (SPVD) and Its Effect on the Gene Expression Profile in Sweet Potato.

Sweet potato virus disease (SPVD) is the most devastating viral disease in sweet potato ( (L.) Lam.), causing substantial yield losses worldwide.

Comparative Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Critical Function of Sucrose Metabolism Related-Enzymes in Starch Accumulation in the Storage Root of Sweet Potato.

The starch properties of the storage root (SR) affect the quality of sweet potato ( (L.) Lam.).

Development and Identification of SSR Markers Associated with Starch Properties and β-Carotene Content in the Storage Root of Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas L.).

Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is a nutritious food crop and, based on the high starch content of its storage root, a potential bioethanol feedstock. Enhancing the nutritional value and starch quantity of storage roots are important goals of sweet potato breeding programs aimed at developing improved varieties for direct consumption, processing, and industrial uses.
