Who will support the world population of more than 9 billion people in 2050? To cope with global crises over food and energy supplies as well as environmental problems, it is urgently required to develop new crop varieties to be grown on marginal lands including dry, high salty and contaminated lands. Sweetpotato is an important food and industrial crop to produce starch and useful components including antioxidants. The nonprofit CSPI (2007) designated sweetpotato as one of ten super foods for better health. USDA (2008) reevaluated that it is the best starch crop on marginal lands. Little research has been carried out on sweetpotato antioxidants at the molecular level, despite its importance as the well-being food source. In the presentation, our recent results on metabolic engineering of pigment antioxidants in transgenic sweetpotato by down-regulation of β-carotene hydroxylase (CHY- β) and lycopene ε-cyclase (LCY-ε), and by overexpressing IbOrange gene will be introduced. We anticipate that rational sweetpotato biotechnology will lead to development of industrial sweetpotato plants with enhanced tolerance to environmental stress on marginal lands.
