Jerusalem artichoke diversity in T ürkiye: comparative analysis of clone and organ-based biochemical composition

In this study, biochemical analyses were performed for the first time on 22 different Jerusalem artichokes clones collected from different regions of Türkiye and samples from three different organs of each clone, considering the interaction effects. As a result of the study, the interaction effect of clones and sampled organs was found significant for total flavonoids, ascorbic acid, total chlorophyll, pH, H2O2 removal capacity, total dry matter, water soluble dry matter and antioxidant capacity via FRAP. According to the correlation analysis, the highest coefficient among the parameters in the tuber was between titratable acidity and total phenolic matter (0,576). Principal component analysis was used to assess the degree to which the parameters explained the variation in the gene pool. Factors directly and indirectly affecting the amount of water-soluble dry matter in the tuber were examined by path analysis.PMID:37967018 | DOI:10.1080/14786419.2023.2280729
