Methodology for Inoculating Sweetpotato Virus Disease: Discovery of Tip Dieback, and Plant Recovery and Reversion in Different Clones

PLANT DISEASE, 97(1), 30–36.

By: R. Mwanga n, G. Yencho, R. Gibson* & J. Moyer n

TL;DR: Tanzania, a landrace of I. batatas widely grown in East Africa, was found to be a superior host for maintaining and increasing SPVD inoculum (scions) for mass grafting and modifications to a cleft-grafting technique allowed rapid screening of large sweetpotato populations for SPVD resistance.

2010 journal article

Identification of quantitative trait loci for dry-matter, starch, and beta-carotene content in sweetpotato

MOLECULAR BREEDING, 28(2), 201–216.

author keywords: Ipomoea batatas; Sweetpotato; Sweetpotato breeding; QTL; Molecular marker; Molecular mapping; Polyploid mapping; Marker-assisted breeding; Vitamin A
TL;DR: This work identifies quantitative trait loci (QTL) for dry-matter, starch, and β-carotene content in a hexaploid sweetpotato mapping population derived from a cross between Tanzania and Beauregard, an orange-fleshed, low dry- Mattersweetpotato cultivar popular in the USA.

Development of a genetic linkage map and identification of homologous linkage groups in sweetpotato using multiple-dose AFLP markers

MOLECULAR BREEDING, 21(4), 511–532.

By: J. Cervantes-Flores n, G. Yencho n, A. Kriegner*, K. Pecota n, M. Faulk n, R. Mwanga*, B. Sosinski n

author keywords: ipomoea batatas; molecular marker; molecular mapping; polyploid mapping; autopolyploid
TL;DR: The research supports the hypothesis that sweetpotato is an autopolyploid and suggests that some preferential pairing occurs insweetpotato. (via Semantic Scholar)

Diallel analysis of sweetpotatoes for resistance to sweetpotato virus disease

EUPHYTICA, 128(2), 237–248.

author keywords: general combining ability; heritability; Ipomoea batatas; Sweetpotato chlorotic stunt virus; Sweetpotato feathery mottle virus; Sweetpotato virus disease
TL;DR: Two genotypes, New Kawogo and Sowola, had high negative GCA effects and had several families in specific crosses, which exhibited rapid recovery from SPVD, and are promising parents for enhancement of SPVD resistance and recovery. (via Semantic Scholar)

Apparent absence of viruses in most symptomless field-grown sweet potato in Uganda

ANNALS OF APPLIED BIOLOGY, 130(3), 481–490.

By: R. Gibson*, R. Mwanga, S. Kasule, I. Mpembe & E. Carey*

author keywords: Ipomoea batatas; sweet potato; planting material; degeneration; viruses; virus-free; sweet potato feathery mottle virus; SPFMV; Uganda
TL;DR: Symptomless sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) plants obtained from farmers' fields in each of the main sweet potato growing regions of Uganda were tested by nitro-cellulose membrane enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (NCM-ELISA) for sweet potato feathery mottle virus (SPFMV) and SPFMV alone was identified by NCM- ELISA.
