Phenolic Content and Molecular Markers of Different Yacon [Smallanthus sonchifolius (Poepp. et Endl.) H. Robinson] Landraces

Original language description

Yacon [Smallanthus sonchifolius (Poepp. et Endl.) H. Robinson, Asteraceae] is a perennial herb originally cultivated in South America and now introduced and cultivated in several other countries. The productivity and other valuable agronomic trakte of yacon strongly suggest that it is a species with a great potential and recently, the attention on it is grown up, also due to its nutritional characteristics and its phytoterapic use. It is cultivated for its tuberous roots that have exceptional qualitiesfor low-calorie diets thanks to its abundant content of fructooligosacharide and for the absence of starch. Otherwise leaves extract is very rich in phenolic components with strong antioxidant activities and, recently, it was demonstrated that it also possess hypoglycaemic properties. The aim of this work is to investigate total phenolic content and genetic distance among five different yacon landraces collected in different countries. Total phenolic content was measured in the five clon
