- Abstract
The study was conducted from 2012-2014 on brown earth of a defective wheat complex (Podkarpackie Voivodeship). It included 3 cultivars of sweet potato: Carmen Rubin, Goldstar and White Triumph, with variable morphological and physiological characteristics. The influence of genetic properties of sweet potato cultivars on their wholesomeness was analysed. The content of dry matter, starch, protein, vitamin C, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and sodium in sweet potato tubers was determined with the use of standard methods. The wholesomeness of sweet potato tubers proved to be high and dependent on the genetic properties of the cultivars under study, except for phosphorus and magnesium. White Triumph turned out to be the most nutritional cultivar, with the highest content of dry mass, protein, vitamin C and magnesium as compared to the other cultivars. The sweet potato tubers exhibited high phosphorus, potassium, calcium and sodium content and low magnesium content. The Goldstar cultivar was characterised by the highest potassium and sodium content, and the Carmen Rubin had the lowest magnesium and calcium content.
