Abstract excerpt
Stevia rebaudiana (stevia) is an herbaceous perennial grown to produce sweet-tasting non-caloric steviol glycosides produced in the leaves and used as a sugar substitute. While stevia produces more than 60 known steviol glycosides, those with the greatest consumer-desired taste profiles, such as rebaudioside (Reb) D and Reb M, are produced at low concentrations. Efforts to breed stevia with increased...
