effect on the quality of axillary buds. Li (2015) found that the taste of sweetpotato sprouts worsened but the nutritional value improved with increased photoperiod. Sweetpotato sprouts are vegetables that can be grown by the consumer. They are easy to

objective of this study was to characterize variation among 54 accessions from the USDA-ARS collection for potential seed yield and nutritional quality when grown in the eastern United States. Materials and methods For this study, 54 accessions from mothbean

limiting elements in this study, but leaf nutrient concentrations were found to be poor indicators of plant quality and nutritional status as a result of strong dilution effects. Because areca palms are susceptible to the same nutrient deficiencies as other

plants, it is not only important to increase yields but also to improve quality. Improvements to quality attributes such as flavor and/or nutritional value can differentiate hydroponically grown products from field-grown products. The environmental
