| Abstract: | Some of the aromatic compounds evolved by stored potato tubers have been identified by combined GLC-MS. Of the identified compounds, benzothiazole, 1,4-dimethylnaphthalene and 1,6-dimethylnaphthalene are comparatively potent inhibitors of sprout growth in the potato tuber. The growth suppressing activity of the two dimethylnaphthalenes is comparable with that of isopropyl-(N-3-chlorophenyl)-carbamate, which is used commercially in potato storage. |
