Background: Pigmented potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.) are rich in anthocyanin, which have antioxidantiy and play an important role in health and medical. Nevertheless, the regulation mechanism of anthocyanins in purple potato at different growth stages remain unclear.

Results: In this study, through using the high-throughput sequencing and systematic bioinformatics analysis, a total of 7,176 significantly different expressed genes (DEGs) were discovered from the purple potato Huasong 66 tubers at different developmental stages. Through GO and KEGG enrichment analysis, it was found that, 43 DEGs were mainly enriched in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, flavonoid biosynthesis, and phenylalanine metabolism, which biological processes are closely related to anthocyanin biosynthesis. The quantitative RT-PCR were verified the reliability of transcriptome data. We demonstrated that DEGs or transcription factors (TFs) which related to flavonoid metabolism were involved in the anthocyanins biosynthesis, such as the protein-coding genes PAL, CHS, CHI, 4CL, F3H, UFGT, LAR, and the TFs MYB, bHLH, and HY5.

Conclusion: The key genes involved in anthocyanin synthesis in potato tubers were identificated, it provides new insights for molecular breeding new cultivars. These results are valuable for improving the anthocyanin in potato.

Maejo 341 Sweet potato (MSP) is a new purple sweet potato variety cultivated in Northern Thailand, but its health benefits are unknown. This study aimed to investigate its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-osteoporotic activities, as well as its anthocyanin content. The peel and flesh of MSP were extracted with ethanol and water.

The effects of sugar boiling pretreatment (SBP) with different maltitol concentrations (20 %, 30 %, and 40 %) and boiling time (0 - 6 min) on the physicochemical and functional properties of purple sweet potato flour and the radiofrequency explosion puffing (RFEP) quality were investigated. The results showed that the volume ratio, crispness, anthocyanin retention rate and overall acceptability of the samples were maximized after boiling for 6 min at 40 % maltitol concentration achieving increases of 78.63 %, 437.

This study aimed to develop tuber bread from purple sweet potato and bambara beans with high satiety and low glycemic index (GI). Different ratios of purple sweet potato to bambara bean were used: 100:0 (F0), 80:20 (F1), 60:40 (F2), and 40:60 (F3). The satiety index (SI) was determined by assessing the consumption of a 240 kcal isocaloric food and collecting data through a visual analog scale.
