Fund: AbstractVitamin A and Vitamin E are two kinks of micronutrients that must be acquired regularly from dietary sources. Sweet corn is a type of fresh corn for direct consumption by human beings. The content of provitamin A and vitamin E components at milk stage of kernels development were measured by HPLC in 47 sweet corn lines. The results showed that the contents of carotenoids and tocopherols and the α/γ tocopherol ratio were extremely different among 47 sweet corn lines. The non-provitamin A, including lutein and zeaxanthin, are the main components of the total carotenoids. The main component of vitamin E is γ-tocopherol. The pearson correlation analysis showed that significantly positive correlation and non-correlation were detected among most traits. β-carotene was significantly positive correlated with zeaxanthin, β-cryptoxanthin and α-carotenoids, respectively. Three isomers of vitamin E were significantly correlated between each other. The ratio of α/γ tocopherol had a significantly negative correlation with δ-tocopherol and γ-tocopherol and a significantly positive correlation with zeaxanthin and α-tocopherol. A significantly positive association was found between β-carotene and α-tocopherol. These results provide useful information for the research on provitamin A and vitamin E metabolism and nutritional improvement in sweet corn.
