Carbohydrate metabolism in yam tubers during storage and sprouting.

Tubers of Dioscorea alata cv. Sree Keerthi and Sree Roopa, D. rotundata cv. Sree Priya and Sree Subra and D. esculenta cv. Sree Latha stored at room temperature (30-32 deg C) and 80-85% RH in the dark sprouted 70 to 80 days after harvest. In the apical and basal regions, the starch content decreased while the sugars and alpha -amylase activity increased.
