In aquaculture, fish health problems are often encountered which can lead to failure in cultivation activities. One of the efforts to overcome the problem of disease in cultivation is done by providing immunostimulants. Sweet potato leaves (Ipomoea batatas) are plants that have a short harvest period, cheap and rich in vitamins and antioxidants so that it can be used as a source of immunstimulants. This research was conducted to determine the effect of adding sweet potato leaves (Ipomea batats) to tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) feed on total leukocytes, phagocytic activity, hematocrit, and survival rate. The study was conducted by experimental method using a completely randomized design, with 4 treatment doses of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) used were 0%, 5%, 10% and 15%, which were formulated in fish feed and each treatment was repeated 3 times.. The results showed that giving 10% of sweet potato (Ipomea batatas) leaves in feed had a significant effect on the non-specific immune system of tilapia, which could increase the highest total leukocyte value by 6600 mm3 but did not have a significant effect on the phagocytosis index. 96.3%, 31% hematocrit with 93% survival.

Producing ‘Hawaiian Heritage’ cultivars can raise the market value of locally grown sweet potatoes and increase small farmer earnings in Hawaii. Twelve sweet potato breeding lines (Ipomea batatas L.), derived from the Hawaiian maternal parent ‘Mohihi’, together with four check varieties, were trialed under organic management conditions across three environments (site-year combinations) in Oahu, Hawaii (Waimānalo-2018, Waimānalo-2019 and Poamoho-2019). Trials were harvested five months after planting, consistent with local commercial production standards. There were significant differences in fresh harvest yield, post-curing yield, shape, and quality between environments and cultivars. The ‘Hawaiian Heritage’ lines HM 26 and HM 34 outperformed the commercial standard, demonstrating the potential use of traditional Hawaiian germplasm in modern breeding programs. Additionally, ‘Hawaiian Heritage’ lines (e.g., HM 32 and HM 17) with unique traits favored by the local community may be suitable breeding materials for niche markets.

Eighty-four does of mixed breeds aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 550–600g were used todetermine the effect of feeding two varieties of composite sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas)root meal (CSPM) on the haematological and serum biochemical indices of rabbits. Therabbits were randomly allocated into seven treatments. T1 was the control while T2, T3, T4,contained 25, 50 and 75 % of maize replaced with CIP440293 CSPM and T5, T6 and T7contained TIS87/0087 CSPM replaced with 25, 50 and 75 % of maize. The treatments hadfour replicates each in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) experiment. The dietscontained 10.6-12.6 % crude fibre, 16.4-17.6 % crude protein and 2610-2788 Kcal/Kgmetabolizable energy. Parameters measured were growth, haematological and serumbiochemical index of the rabbit. The result showed that there were significant (P<0.05)differences on the final weight gain, daily feed intake, daily weight gain, feed cost andsurvival ability of the rabbits. The FCR was not significantly (P>0.05) different across thedietary treatments. At the end of nine weeks of feeding trial, blood samples were collectedfrom three rabbits per treatment. The results indicate that the dietary treatments hadsignificant (P<0.05) influence on the concentrations of white blood cells and eosinophils.However, there were no significant influence of the diets on other haematologicalparameters. Total protein, urea, globulin and creatinine were also not affected (P>0.05) bythe treatment diets but albumin, cholesterol, glucose, aspartate transaminase (AST), alaninetransaminase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were influenced by the different dietarytreatments. These results show that CSPM of two varieties can be included up 50 % ingrowing rabbit diets without adverse effect on haematology and serum indices of rabbits
