Changes in Composition of Potatoes Solanum Tuberosum cv. Huinkul Stored in Clamps

Changes in tuber composition related to potato (So/unum tuberosum cv. Huinkul) storage in clamps for 120 days, were studied. Dry matter (22.53 2 2.9) was unaffected by storage. Protein, vitamin C, total lipids and phospholipids were calculated on a IOOg dry weight basis. Initial protein content (4.71 g? 0.5) fluctuated during storage, having a similar percentage value at the end of the storage period. Vitamin C at harvest was 100 mg? 8.1 and decreased to 55.8 mg + 8.4 (120th day).Total lipids were 0.6g? 0.15 and 0.25g? 0.06 at the beginning and at the end of storage, respectively. Initial and final phospholipid content were 0.14g-C 0.02 and 0.16g 2 0.02, respec-tively
