## Abstract Tubers of 20 varieties of potato grown in New Zealand have been analysed for ascorbic acid content at harvest and at monthly intervals during storage in a commercialβtype clamp, in two successive years. Variety was a significant factor in causing differences in the ascorbic acid content
Tubers from Γve potato cultivars were selected on the basis of their low, intermediate or high rates of glycoalkaloid synthesis in response to stresses such as light or cold storage temperatures. The tubers were subjected to a standard degree of damage sufficient to cause bruising but not severe dam
