Abstract：
Sweetpotato (Ipomoeae batatas (L.) Lam.) is an important food crop affected by several pests throughout the world, especially in tropical, subtropical, and temperate regions. Although Japan is relatively free from many serious sweetpotato pests, some pests, especially soil-borne pathogens, viruses, and insects such as plant-parasitic nematodes and weevils, cause severe damage in Japan. In this review, we describe the current status and management options for sweetpotato pests and diseases in Japan and review research related to sweetpotato breeding that can promote resistance to these problems. Furthermore, we describe methods to evaluate resistance to pests and disease used in sweetpotato breeding at the National Agriculture and Food Research Organization (NARO).
摘要：
甘薯（Ipomoeaebatatas（L.）林。)是受世界各地几种害虫影响的重要粮食作物，尤其是在热带，亚热带,和温带地区。尽管日本相对没有许多严重的甘薯害虫，一些害虫，特别是土壤传播的病原体，病毒,和昆虫，如植物寄生线虫和象鼻虫，在日本造成严重损害。在这次审查中,我们描述了日本甘薯病虫害的现状和管理方案，并回顾了与甘薯育种相关的研究，这些研究可以提高对这些问题的抗性。此外，我们描述了在国家农业和食品研究组织（NARO）评估甘薯育种中使用的对病虫害的抗性的方法。
