Abstract

Abstract Tubers of potato ( Solanum tuberosum L.) with the nonparasitic disorders of hollow heart and blackheart contained significantly more glycoalkaloids in the cortical region than normal tubers in 3 cultivars. The glycoalkaloid content of tuber tissue was related to the severity of the disorders.
