Other claims from this paper (5)
- Association Defoliation at the early stage of root maturation was correlated with marked suppression of internal browning disorder in sweetpotato.
- Association Shading during the maturation stage was correlated with marked suppression of internal browning disorder in sweetpotato.
- Intervention effect Shade treatment decreased transcription levels of genes related to starch synthesis in sweetpotato roots.
- Intervention effect Shade treatment reduced the starch grain content as an area percent in the cells of sweetpotato roots.
- Mechanism Occurrence of internal browning is suggested to depend on the degree of activation of starch synthesis using sugar transported to the root.
