Abstract

Investigations were undertaken to find out the effect of conditions of storage on the activity of acid phosphatase (AcPh) in some varieties of potatoes. Both AcPh activity and specific activity of the tubers stored at room temperature were lower than that of the tubers stored in cold store.
