Combining Metabolomics and Transcriptomics to Reveal the Mechanism of Coloration in Purple and Cream Mutant of Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas L.)

Purple sweet potato is considered as a healthy food because of its high anthocyanins. To understand the coloring mechanism and quality change between purple-fleshed sweet potato (cv. Xuzi201) and its cream fleshed mutant (M1001), a combined metabolomic and transcriptomic analysis was performed. The...
