Abstract:
Populations of the sweet potato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci, have been shown to consist of both migratory and trivial flying morphs. The behavior of these forms as part of the process of short-range migration needed to be examined under field conditions. Insects were marked in a field of cantaloupes using fluorescent dust. During the first growing season traps, used to collect living whiteflies, were placed along 16 equally spaced transects (22.5° apart) radiating out from the field to a distance of up to 0.6 miles. Wind out of the northeast consistently carried migrating whiteflies to traps plac

Abstract:
The sweet potato whitefly is an insect whose economic importance is continually expanding as it becomes a more efficient vector, increases its fecundity and broadens its host range. To keep pace with its ability to develop resistance to existing classes of pesticides, we have undertaken a program to examine the effectiveness of pesticides with novel chemistries and novel modes of action. Several have shown themselves to be very effective against the various life stages of the sweet potato whitefly.

In addition, field studies were conducted to learn more about timing, direction, and distance flown. Our goal is to develop a predictive model that can be used for forecasting whitefly movement.

Abstract:
In the past we have assumed that sweet potato whiteflies, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), were poor fliers with a limited ability to disperse. This assumption was based on the fact that sweet potato whiteflies are extremely small insects (24 -44 μg) and consequently would be subject to desiccation. We also thought small size would limit their capacity to store sufficient energy reserves to sustain flight for long periods of time. Recent experiments have indicated we were wrong on several counts. Data collected in the laboratory using a vertical flight chamber have revealed a number of interesting

Abstract:
The importance of the sweet potato whitefly to Arizona vegetable continues to ebb and flow from year to year. Over the last 25 years much of this likely is tied to the invasion by different strains. As we continue to study this insect, an aspect of importance to their management is their ability to disperse. In past studies we have determined how far they are capable of flying in a day’s time, 95% migrate 1.6 miles. We are now investigating their ability to fly multiple days. If they do migrate on more than 1 day, we must readjust our estimates of their influence on surrounding fields.

Abstract:
The sweet potato has become a major international crop and it is also the main staple food for many people in the developing world. This crop is desirable as it is high yielding, easy to grow and has a low cost of production. However, the tubers have a low protein content and a low concentration of amino acids, particularly the aspartate amino acid. This has contributed to malnutrition in some areas. To help overcome this problem this study had the aim of producing lines of sweet potato with increased nutritional values. Two varieties, Beauregard and LO322, were selected for study as they have

碩士<br>臺灣大學<br>植物病理與微生物學研究所<br>96<br>Severe root and stem rot of sweet potato was first found in Yong-He and Shu-Lin, Taipei county, in Taiwan in 2006. The disease symptoms include wilting shoot, pale leaf, black stem, root rot and death. The occurrence of this disease can be traced back to at least ten years ago as described by the farmers. The causal agent of root and stem rot of sweet potato is a pathogenic bacterium according to Koch’s postulates. The pathogen was identified as Erwinia chrysanthemi based on the morphology, Gram’s stain test, Bilolog identification, and NGM differential medi

The expression of IbpreproHypSys, encoding the precursor of IbHypSys, was induced in sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas cv. Tainung 57) through wounding and IbHypSys treatments by using jasmonate and H2O2. Transgenic sweet potatoes overexpressing (OE) and silencing (RNAi) IbpreproHypSys were created. The expression of the wound-inducible gene ipomoelin (IPO) in the local and systemic leaves of OE plants was stronger than the expression in wild-type (WT) and RNAi pl

Abstract:
Starch residue samples from two Australian sweet potato varieties (Beauregard and Northern Star) and two Indonesian sweet potato varieties (Bis192 and Bis183), and commercial sample of sweet potato starch residue, were studied for their pectins. Pectins were extracted using 0.1M HCl, 0.05M NaOH, 0.1M HCl/0.75%SHMP, and 0.05M NaOH/0.75% SHMP. Hydrolysis of residual starch in the cell wall of sweet potato using heat stable α-amylase and amyloglucosidase was employed prior to pectin extraction to eliminate starch contamination. Pectins were characterised for yield, moisture, ash, galacturonic aci

Abstract:
Vacuum frying is a promising method for preserving the desired color, texture, and flavor of products with high sugar content. Since most vegetables and fruits degrade when processed with traditional frying, vacuum frying is an excellent alternative to high temperature processing. However, in vacuum frying the product should be pre-treated before frying to obtain a better texture. The kinetics of oil absorption and oil distribution in sweet potato chips (total, internal, and surface oil content) was studied so that effectiveness of the de-oiling system could be established.
