Abstract
The composition of cell fusion vegetable “Yamagata midorina” was investigated comparing with its parental “Yamaga Seisai” and “Chinese cabbege”, harvested from the same field in the same season in the year 2000. The vitamin content of three variety vegetables was investigated dividing with “leaf blade” and “leaf stalk and midrib”. There were much β-carotene, vitamin B1, vitamin B2 and vitamin C in “leaf blade” of the 3 variety vegetables. Three variety vegetables accumulated most quantities of the vitamin content in “leaf blade”. Contents of 13-carotene, vitamin B2 and vitamin C in “leaf blade” of “Yamagata midorina” were close to those of “Yamaga Seisai”. Content of vitamin B1in “leaf blade” of “Yamagata midorina” was intermediate between “Yamaga Seisai” and “Chinese cabbege”. Therefore, when nutrition guidance is educated to people, it is able to use of “Yamagata midorina” as a colored vegetable.
