“…Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) has a growing body of literatures (Kaszás et al 2020a) because of its importance in the agricultural, economical, ecological and industrial sectors. It is considered as a promising crop for producing raw materials for foodstuff or functional foods, animal feed and biofuel production as an energy crop in recent years (Lv et al 2019 andZhao et al 2020). It is a perennial crop belonging to the Asteraceae family, which includes the sunflower genus and it is well known as wild sunflower or topinambur or sunchoke (Lv et al 2019).…”

D UE to several bioproducts derived from Jerusalem artichoke (JA), it has several ecological and economical benefits in bioenergy production, functional foods and human health. These bio-based multi-products include fructose, inulin, antioxidants, natural fungicides and bio-ethanol. This study included the assessment of some biochemical components of in vitro calli cultures, in vivo tubers and leaves of three JA cultivars and their significant role for human health. Inulin as a functional food ingredient, fructose, protein and polyphenols were selected. The most important findings demonstrated that the crude content in tubers of any studied JA cultivar was 4-5 folds that in calli cultures. The lowest values of fructose among JA fractions were recorded for calli derived from the three studied cultivars. Both calli culutres and leaves of all studied JA cultivars showed the highest crude protein comparing with the tubers. The total soluble phenols were higher in calli cultures of all JA cultivars than which recorded with both of leaves and tubers. This is the first report handles the comparison among calli cultures, tubers and leaves of three JA cultivars in their content of the bioactive compounds. Further investigations are required not only to determine the fractionations of the bioactive compounds but also different approaches of plant biotechnology techniques should be employed to increase the studied bioactive components particularly the inulin and fructose in calli cultures of the investigated JA cultivars.

“…Much of research efforts are employed in the evaluation of agronomic traits, revealing that considerable variability is available within the conserved germplasm for any breeding program [2,48]. Targeted studies of genetic diversity for traits strictly related to biofuel productions are not as many [52,53,65,66]. Nonetheless, many of these traits (e.g., top and tuber yield, flowering time, biomass, harvest index, tuber number/plant) are commonly included in more comprehensive analyses under normal [30,41,67,68] and water stressed conditions [69][70][71].…”

Jerusalem Artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.): A Versatile and Sustainable Crop for Renewable Energy Production in Europe

et al. 2019

Recently, biofuels have become a strategic focus to reduce vehicle emissions and increase sustainability of the transport sector. However, the sustainability of biofuels production has been questioned owing to its implications for future land footprint. In this respect, the EU Commission has very recently classified as low indirect land-use change (ILUC)–risk biofuels those obtained by crops grown on marginal lands and with low external inputs. Only few crops can reach high yields under both of these conditions across Europe. From this point of view, Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) is certainly a species worthy of remark since it has all the attributes to accomplish the aims of the updated EU Renewable Energy Directive (RED II). Starting from physiological aspects, the present review examines and summarizes literature on the ecology, genetic resources, agronomic practices and sustainability of this species. The goal is to point out the recent advances of research in Jerusalem artichoke (JA) potential as alternative biofuel feedstock and to identify what is still needed to better characterize its environmental benefits and agronomic performance.

“…Jerusalem artichoke tubers have a fine texture, a crisp, sweet taste, and they are rich in nutrients, including inulin, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and trace elements (Guo et al, 2018 ; Judprasong et al, 2018 ). Importantly, the Jerusalem artichokes serves as an ideal raw material for high-quality pickles (Lv et al, 2019 ).…”

Freshly harvested Jerusalem artichoke tubers contain inulinase, an enzyme that requires inactivation, because of its ability to hydrolysis inulin into fructose, which can be consumed by microorganism during marination. As the traditional pickling process takes 6 months, and involves the addition of a large amount of salt (18–20%), this production strategy is uneconomical and increases the nitrite intake. Additionally, miscellaneous bacteria produced during pickling affect the product taste. In this study, the enzyme inactivation effects of NaCl, NaHCO3, and ultrasound were evaluated. NaHCO3 treatment results in the highest degree of enzyme inactivation; however, the quality and flavor of the obtained Jerusalem artichoke pickles were not ideal. The Jerusalem artichoke pickles in which the enzymes were inactivated using a combination of NaCl and ultrasound exhibited better flavor than those exposed to NaHCO3; further, this combination reduced the inulinase activity of the Jerusalem artichokes to 2.50 U/mL, and maintained the inulin content at 61.22%. The strains LS3 and YS2, identified as Enterococcus faecalis and the salt-tolerant yeast Meyerozyma guilliermondii, respectively, were the dominant microorganisms isolated from the pickle juice. Jerusalem artichokes with inactivated inulinase were pickled with microbial powder, separated, purified, and dried to remove the natural Jerusalem artichoke sauce. This process shortened the fermentation cycle and improved product quality.
