Potatoes regarding their consumption are a significant antioxidant source in human nutrition. The main potato an tioxidants are polyphenols, ascorbic acid, carotenoids, tocopherols, α-lipoic acid, and selenium. The most contained polyphenolic antioxidants in potatoes are L-tyrosine, caffeic acid, scopolin, chlorogenic and cryptochlorogenic acid and ferulic acid. In red and purple potatoes are in addition contained acylated anthocyanins and pigmented potatoes display two to three times higher…

Polyphenols of coloured-flesh potatoes as native antioxidants in stored fried snacks
Coloured-fleshed potatoes after boiling: Promising sources of known antioxidant compounds
Metabolite profiling of red and blue potatoes revealed cultivar and tissue specific patterns for anthocyanins and other polyphenols
TLDR
The different anthocyanin profiles in red and blue potato cultivars likely relate to superior regulation of the expression and activities of hydroxylases and methyltransferases rather than to differences for downstream glycosyl- and acyltransferases.
Bioactive Compounds in Potato Tubers: Effects of Farming System, Cooking Method, and Flesh Color
TLDR
The analysis showed that organically grown potatoes with creamy, light yellow, and yellow flesh had significantly higher TPs than did potatoes grown conventionally and a dry cooking method increased the TP contents in potatoes by about 30%, regardless of the flesh color and the production system.

TLDR
Overexpression of HQT in tomato caused plants to accumulate higher levels of CGA, with no side-effects on the levels of other soluble phenolics, and to show improved antioxidant capacity and resistance to infection by a bacterial pathogen.
