The potato tuber is known as a rich source of essential nutrients, used throughout the world. Although potato-breeding programs share some priorities, the major objective is to increase the genetic potential for yield through breeding or to eliminate hazards that reduce yield. Glycoalkaloids, which are considered a serious hazard to human health, accumulate naturally in potatoes during growth, harvesting, transportation, and storage. Here, we used the AMMI (additive main effects and multiplicative interaction) and GGE (Genotype main effect and genotype by environment interaction) biplot model, to evaluate tuber yield stability and glycoalkaloid content in six potato cultivars across three locations during 2012/2013. The environment on tuber yield had the greatest effect and accounted for 33.0% of the total sum squares; genotypes accounted for 3.8% and $G{\times}E$ interaction accounted for 11.1% which is the nest highest contribution. Conversely, the genotype on glycoalkaloid had the greatest effect and accounted for 82.4% of the total sum squares), whereas environment and $G{\times}E$ effects on this trait accounted for only 0.4% and 3.7%, respectively. Furthermore, potato genotype 'Superior', which covers most of the cultivated area, exhibited high yield performance with stability. 'Goun', which showed lower glycoalkaloid content, was the most suitable and desirable genotype. Results showed that, while tuber yield was more affected by the environment, glycoalkaloid content was more dependent on genotype. Further, the use of the AMMI and GGE biplot model generated more interactive visuals, facilitated the identification of superior genotypes, and suggested decisions on a variety of recommendations for specific environments.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of functional cookies made with potato peels (cortex layer) containing high amounts of glycoalkaloid. Cookies were processed by mixing ratios of 10, 15 and $20\%$ potato peel relatively to flour. The spread ratio of the cookies was increased with increasing potato peel addition. Texture measurement for the cookies on substituting $10\%$ of flour for potato peel showed a decreased hardness, but the cohesiveness and springiness were increased compared to the control and other ratios. The glycoalkaloid contents of the cookies on substituting 10, 15 and $20\%$ of the flour forpotato peel were 6.27, 9.40 and 12.54mg, respectively, which according to the USAD guidelines are safe amounts for the human body, and also enough for making functional cookies. In the sensory evaluations, the cookies with $10\%$ of the flour substituted for potato peel had the highest scores in flavor, taste, appearance and texture.

The potato tubers of Solanum tuberosum L. contain potato glycoalkaloids (PGA), a class of naturally occurring toxicants. The primary constituents of this class of compounds in potatoes are $\alpha$-chaconine and $\alpha$-solanine. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of various cooking methods on the PGA contents in the common Korean potato Irish Cobbler variety and those in commercially produced potato products consumed in Korea. After cooking, most potatoes showed big decreases in their PGA contents compared to the uncooked samples, with the exception of baked potatoes, which maintained 90.86％ of their PGA contents. The PGA levels in boiled and blanched potatoes were reduced by 91.68 and 84.17％, respectively. However, the levels in samples boiled in 1％ salted water were only reduced by 52.10％. Potatoes fried and sauteed in oil had their PGA contents reduced to 49.42 and 49.51％ of their original levels. The reductions in the relative PGA contents by cooking method were in the order boiling〉blanching〉boiling with 1％ NaCl〉steaming〉sauteing〉frying〉microwaving〉baking. The highest remaining PGA content of the potato products in Korea was in potato chips, at 69.57mg/100g, but made with imported potatoes.

This paper was conducted to evaluate aglycones and carbohydrates produced by acid hydrolysis of three potato glycoalkaloids [(PGA); ${\alpha}$-chaconine, ${\alpha}$-solanine, and demissine] in potatoes. Standard solanidine and demissidine were dissolved in 1N HCl and then heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 10-120 min. Solanidine was rapidly decomposed during acid hydrolysis and one peak that was identified as solantherene ($M^+$=379) by GC-MS was detected. The transformation solanidine to solanthrene was approximately 50% complete after 10 min, approximately 90% complete after 60 min and 100% complete after 120 min. Demissidine was hydrolyzed using the same method that was used to hydrolyze the solanidine. However, demissidine produced only one peak upon GC-MS ($M^+$=399) analysis and was found to be very stable at increased temperatures. Acidy hydrolysis of ${\alpha}$-chaconine, ${\alpha}$-solanine and demissine resulted in the decomposition of ${\alpha}$-chaconine and ${\alpha}$-solanine to solanidine and solanthrene, respectively. Therefore, this hydrolysis method should not be utilized to produce PGA combining with solanidine as aglycone. The individual carbohydrates produced by the two PGAs by hydrolysis were very stable at increased temperatures; therefore, it was possible to quantify these PGAs based on calculation of the individual carbohydrate content. Conversely, because demissidine produced by the hydrolysis of demissine was extremely stable at increased temperatures, it was possible to quantify the PGA based on the aglycone produced by hydrolysis.

Quality characteristics of functional bread added with different concentrations of potato juice and processed by basic formulation were investigated. Specific volume and baking loss of bread added with 20% potato juice (potato juice : water = 20 : 80) were the highest. Moisture and crude protein contents increased with increasing content of potato juice, while crude lipid content decreased. Lightness (L value) and yellowness (b value) of bread decreased with increasing content of potato juice, while redness (a value) increased. Texture measurement showed springiness, cohesiveness, and brittleness increased with increase of potato juice content. Highest sensory scores for color (p < 0.001), flavor, and taste (p < 0.05) were obtained from bread added with 20% potato juice, while appearance (p < 0.01) and texture (p < 0.01) of control bread were highest. Glycoalkaloid contentsof bread added with 50 and 100% potato juice were 2.85 and 5.79 mg%, respectively.

The purpose of this study was 10 investigate the quality characteristics of potato added functional cream soup. The highest crude protein (p<.01) and crude lipid (p<.001) were for the potato soup with added potato peel ($S_3$). The highest pH of 5.95 was for the potato soup with added potato peel ($S_4$). The highest lightness of 69.46(L value) was for the potato soup with added potato peel ($S_3$) (p<.01). The redneess(a value) and yellowness(b value) were increased by the adding of potato peel to the potato soup(p<.01). Viscosity was increased by potato content, and was the highest for the potato soup ($S_2$) (p<.001). The glycoalkaloid content of the potato soup with added potato peel was 1.75 mg and 2.20 mg, for $S_3$ and $S_4$ respectively. In sensory evaluation, the highest sensory scores for flavor and taste (p<.05) of mean 3.55 and 3.45, respectively, were obtained from the potato soup with added potato peel ($S_4$). The highest overall acceptability of mean 3.00 was for the potato soup with added potato peel ($S_3$) (p<.01).

A method was developed using enhanced liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry for the analysis and quantitation of 2 main potato glycoalkaloids, $\alpha$-chaconine, and $\alpha$-solanine, without any pre-concentration or derivatisation steps. Calibration curves generated by this technique exhibited a linear dynamic range from 0.025 to $50{\mu}g/mL$ and from 0.05 to $50{\mu}g/mL$ for $\alpha$-chaconine and $\alpha$-solanine, respectively. Matrix effects were evaluated by comparing calibration curves measured in matrix-matched and solvent-based systems. Ion suppression due to matrix effects was weak and extraction recoveries of 88 to 114% were obtained in different sample matrices spiked with analyte concentrations ranging from 15 to $35{\mu}g/mL$. Potatoes that had been genetically modified to tolerate glufosinate contained the same glycoalkaloid levels as their non-transgenic counterpart. We suggest complementing compositional comparison assessment strategy by validating quantitative analytical methods for the toxic glycoalkaloids in potato plants.

(4-$^{14}$ C) Cholesterol was administered to the leaves of Solanum andigena during photoperiodic induction. Radioactive products converted from cholesterol were studied by thin-layer chromatography and gas-chromatography. The major products from cholesterol were shown to be esterified cholesterol in lipid and solanine in the aqueous ethanolic phase in SD-and LD-leaves. The radioactive solanidine was isolated by chromatography and crystallized to constant specific activity. Short-day condition did not stimulate the conversion of cholesterol into solanine in the leaves, but both groups of leaves converted cholesterol into solanine at the about same rate. Incorporation of radioactivity into aqueous ethanolic phase of tubers and stolons, containing storied glycoalkaloid, was very much higher than that into lipid phase, contrary to those in the leaves and the stems.

This was aim to study the changes of components by different parts and maturity of tomato. We found that orally fed tomatine which induced a significant reduction in cholesterol in hamster in contrast to potato glycoalkaloids, the safety of tomatine was supported by our observation that pickled green tomatoes consumed widely in many countries has a high tomatine content. The tomatoes harvested during the first stage(10 days after flowering) contained tomatine $6333.49{\mu}g\;per\;100g$ and dohydrotomatine and ${\alpha}$-tomatine in a ratio of about 1:13.8. The tomatine content then decreased by about 85% during stage 2(20 days after flowering) an dehydrotomatine contene dropped to a value near zero during stage 3, 4 It on the tomatine content dropped to a value near zero during the final stage(50 days after flowering). With respect to health benefits at all stages of maturity, unripe tomato contain chlorophyll and ${\alpha}$-tomatine should consumed.

The thin Layer chromatographic determination of ${\alpha}-solanine $ in potato tuber was investigated. The solanine was extracted with methanol-chloroform mixture (2 : 1, v/v) and precipitated as the crude glycoalkaloid by the addition of ammonium hydroxide. The solanine in the crude precipitate was separated by TLC using a solvent system of 1% $NH_4OH-absolute$ ethanol-chloroform (1:2:2, v/v). The purity of ${\alpha}-solanine $ was confirmed by infrared spectrophotometry. The ${\alpha}-solanine $ separated by TLC was determined at the wavelength of 310nm after coloration with concentrated sulfuric acid-1% paraformaldehyde, with the molar absorptivity of 2,090.
