HIGH REBAUDIOSIDE-C PLANT VARIETAL AND COMPOSITIONS EXTRACTED THEREFROM WITH HIGH REBAUDIOSIDE-C AND TOTAL STEVIOL GLYCOSIDE CONTENT

摘要

A new stevia variety is characterized by remarkably high levels of Rebaudioside C (RC), and developed by the use of non-GMO selective breeding technologies and wherein such variety is uniquely identified by RAPD gene analysis, and comprises from about 3-8% by weight RC in the leaf (leaf content) and from about 10-13% total steviol glycosides content (TSG) in in leaf (leaf content), both of which are exceptionally high.
