Usage examples
  • Bataat ehk maguskartul (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) on Eestis kauge külaline, pärinedes arvatavasti troopilistest ja subtroopilistest Kesk- ja Lõuna-Ameerika piirkondadest. Võiks arvata, et bataat on kartuli lähisugulane, kuid ta kuulub hoopis perekonda lehtertapp ja sugukonda kassitapulised (Convoluvulacea).
