Summary

SUCROSE AND HEXOSE PROFILES OF 3 CULTIVARS (ONAWAY, NORCHIP AND ND 860-2) STORED AT 282 K (9 DEG C) IN AIR AND AT 276 K (3 DEG C) IN AIR OR MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE (1,000 PPM ETHYLENE, 3% O2 ), FROM 0 TO 105 DAYS. AT 282 K ANY GLUCID ACCUMULATION IS NOTED. AT 276 K IN AIR, THE GLUCID CONTENT INCREASES. IN A MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE WITH LOW O2 CONTENT, SUCROSE ACCUMULATION IS DELAYED AND EVEN INHIBITED, DEPENDING ON THE CULTIVAR. (Bibliogr. int. CDIUPA, FR., 90-263020.
