The effects of low temperature and of combined stresses, cool temperature and waterlogging and also warm temperature and drought, on potato tuber glycoalkaloid levels were investigated, with emphasis on comparison of tubers of similar size. The early maturing cultivars Home Guard, Rocket and British
Potato tubers of four varieties (Brodick, King Edward, Pentland Dell and Record) were stored under commercial conditions and exposed to light for up to 10 days after 0, 10, 20 and 30 weeks. These were analysed for photosynthetic pigment and glycoalkaloid content. There was no signiยฎcant alteration i
