## 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 commercial‐type clamp, in two successive years. Variety was a significant factor in causing differences in the ascorbic acid content
Tubers from Ðve 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
Six varieties of Solanum tuberosum L potato grown in the Bolivian highlands under drought stress, with and without irrigation, were analysed for their content of glycoalkaloids (GAs). The plant material consisted of three drought-tolerant varieties from a local breeding programme (PROINPA), Potosina
