Fig. 8From: Effect of wet storage conditions on potato tuber transcriptome, phytohormones and growthSprouting and growth of potato tubers after incubation in wet and dry conditions. a Statistical analysis of stem numbers of non-sprouted potato tubers of three cultivars after incubation for one week in wet or dry conditions at 4 °C or 15 °C. Both temperature (p < 0.0001) and incubation in wet conditions (p = 0.003) had a significant effect on the number of stems during growth of the plants in the greenhouse. b Wet incubation of sprouted tubers at 22 °C led to root growth, while the control tubers incubated in dry conditions did not show any root growthBack to article page
