Glycoalkaloids Content influenced by Tuber Parts and Storage Period in Major Potato Cultivars of Korea

Pentose phosphate metabolism of potato tuber discs as influenced by prior storage temperature.

Tubers of Solanum tuberosum L. var. Russet Burbank, Kennebec, and Targhee were stored at 95% relative humidity and at 1.7, 4.4, 5.8, 7.2 or 10 C. Rates of O(2) consumption were measured periodically by removing individual tubers from storage, excising discs of pith parenchyma tissue, and incubating the discs in a Gilson respirometer at 30 C. With all three varieties, data suggest a greater invo...

Carotenogenesis during tuber development and storage in potato.

Germplasm of Solanum tuberosum and Solanum phureja exhibit a wide (over 20-fold) variation in tuber carotenoid content. The levels of carotenoids during tuber development and storage were compared in a high carotenoid-accumulating S. phureja accession (DB375\1) with two S. tuberosum cultivars (Pentland Javelin and Desiree) that accumulate lower levels of tuber carotenoid. On a dry weight basis,...

Potato Glycoalkaloids, Past Present and Future

The steroidal glycoalkaloids are naturally occurring specialty metabolites of questionable desirability in the vegetable crop, potato. Although glycoalkaloids undoubtedly originated under selection as feeding deterrents against herbivorous pests, they no longer function as the primary feeding deterrent. Moreover, due to their potential toxicity, guidelines persist as to the maximal allowable co...
