Although recognized as part of the vibrant array of native roots and tubers that support farmers’ livelihoods in the Andean region, the root vegetable “mauka” (Mirabilis expansa (Ruíz & Pav.) Standl.) is little known outside the scattering of communities where it is cultivated and is considered at risk of disappearance. Based on fieldwork carried out in Peru in 2016, this study documents ethnobotanical knowledge of mauka through interviews with 40 farmers across the regions of Ancash, Huánuco, Puno, and Amazonas. -

The aim of this 4 work was to recover ahipa proteins by isoelectric point (pI) precipitation to enrich ahipa 5 and cassava starches. Both enriched starches had protein contents of ~2%, and their ATR- 6 FTIR spectra revealed bands characteristic of ahipa proteins. Enriched starches also 7 contained phenolics in concentrations of 18-20 µg GAE/g. -

The experiment was carried out in the Department of Plant Science of the Autonomous University Chapingo, Mexico. Plants were established in a randomized complete block design with five replications. The total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), vitamin C (VC), total phenols (TP), antioxidant capacity (AC), inulin and its proximate composition were evaluated. Among the materials analyzed, the most outstanding wild species were Dahlia campanulata , D. coccinea and D. brevis , where D. campanulata stood out for its concentration of VC (0.05 mg 100 g -1), AC (1.88 mg VCEAC g -1), inulin, DM and TC (72.25, 24.38 and 88.37%, respectively), however, the inulin content was similar to D. -

GENERAL INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background Present food production is still sufficient to feed every world citizen adequately, although the production areas, types of plant and total production vary by region. Some parts of the world are surplus whereas the other parts are facing food supply problems. This is clear from the substantial increases in per capita food supplies achieved globally and for a large portion of population of the developing world. Nevertheless, parts of South Asia may still in difficult situation and much of the Sub-Saharan Africa will probably not be significantly better and may possibly be even worst off than at present in the absence of concerted action by all concerned (FAO 2000). It is well known that there are significant regional differences with respect to style of consumption and types of food which dictating the agricultural production practices. In general, the world has been making progress towards improved food security and nutrition. However, in the long run total food production can not keep pace with the rapid population growth. Agricultural research is fundamental in meeting the challenge of increasing food production faster then population growth. The nutritional situation of many countries in Asia and Africa is a deal worse than 20 to 30 years ago. -
