Sapogenin production in relation to age of tuber in two Dioscorea species
Two sexually propagated, sapogenin-producing Dioscorea selections were tested over 54 months of growth to determine the rate of steroid deposition and production. In both selections, sapogenin concentration increased with tuber age. In Dioscorea floribunda, sapogenin concentration increased more rap...
