Abstract excerpt
The objectives of this research were to study tuber starch characteristics and chemical - thermal properties of 21 potato varieties, and to determine their genetic diversity through SSR markers. Starch granular size varied among samples, with a wide diameter distribution (5-85μm), while granule shapes were similar. Differential Scanning Calorimeter analysis showed that the transition temperatures (69°C-74°C) and...
