Virus-free seed potatoes are generally divided into pre-elite seeds and certified seeds. To study the differences in dry matter accumulation distribution between through a field randomized block two-factor experiment, of four varieties were selected to explore growth characteristics two levels virus-free find way improve potato expansion efficiency. The results showed that process was slower pe...

in order to study the yield and growth indix of potato under water deficit, an experiment was conducted with line-source sprinkler irrigation in khorasan razavi agricultural and natural resource research center. water deficit levels were included, at 0.75m from line-source (control), at 3.75m from line source (very mild deficit), at 6.75m from line-source (mild deficit), at 9.75m from line-sour...

Bárta J., Bártová V. (2008): Patatin, the major protein of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers, and its occurrence as genotype effect: processing versus table potatoes. Czech J. Food Sci., 26: 347–359. Patatin relative abundance in SDS-extractable protein and patatin content in dry matter were evaluated in tubers of forty processing and table potato cultivars usually cultivated in the Czech Re...

BACKGROUND: Acrylamide is a probable human carcinogen produced during food preparation, including frying of potato products. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of seasonal variation on tuber composition and its acrylamide generation potential. RESULTS: The chemical composition of potato varieties used respectively for French fry (Bintje and Ramos) and crisp (Lady Rosetta and Sa...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the best level of inclusion of cactus pear in the ensiling of elephant grass Brazil seeds (BRS) capiaçu (Pennisetum purpureum), its effects on fermentative characteristics; and nutritional value. Experimental treatments consisted of BRS capiaçu grass silage with five levels of inclusion of cactus pear (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20% inclusion as fresh ...

To evaluate the effect of water, tape drip and furrow irrigation methods on the performance components and features of Agria cultivar potato, an experiment was carried out in the agriculture faculty of Kermanshah. Repeated three times, this study was carried out in the form of full random blocks with the main factor of different amounts of irrigation water in three levels (50, 75, and100 percen...

Tiger nut (Cyperus esculentus) tuber contains oil that is high in monounsaturated fatty acids, and this oil makes up about 23% of the tuber. The study aimed at evaluating the impact of several factors and enzymatic pre-treatment on the recovery of pressed tiger nut oil. Smaller particles were more favourable for pressing. High pressure pre-treatment did not increase oil recovery but enzymatic t...

The development of germplasm with resistance to common scab and cold-induced sweetening is a high priority for the potato ( L.) industry. A mapping population was developed from mating two individuals of a diploid family generated by crossing the susceptible cultivated potato clone US-W4 to the highly resistant wild relative ( Bitter) clone '524-8'. Progeny were evaluated in replicated field tr...

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is one of the most often used techniques for rapid quality evaluation various applications. It a non-destructive technique that effectively evaluates attributes root and tuber crops, including yam cassava, their food products. technology, which combines spectroscopy principles, has an advantage over conventional due to its ability simultaneously evaluate physical cha...

The study was initiated to generate genetic information on important yield contributing characters of sweet potato genotypes maintained in Chhattisgarh. Twenty eight potatoes (Ipomea batatas L.)  were evaluated estimate the variability for different characters. experiment conducted using a Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. parameters studied. Analysis variance showe...
