Other claims from this paper (10)
- Association Wave speed increased with increased turgor in potato tuber tissue.
- Intervention effect Increasing turgor significantly decreased failure strain and tissue toughness in both potato cultivars.
- Intervention effect Increasing turgor increased secant modulus in potato tuber tissue.
- Intervention effect Increasing turgor caused a slight decrease in failure stress in potato tuber tissue.
- Mechanism Turgor and temperature have very similar effects on dynamic failure properties, suggesting the same mechanism (author interpretation).
- Observation The overall effects of temperature and turgor on failure stress, strain and toughness were very similar for both cultivars.
- Association Temperature and turgor significantly affected tissue failure in potato.
- Association Atlantic tissue was consistently weaker than Russet Burbank tissue.
- Association Russet Burbank tissue strength was more sensitive to changes in temperature and turgor than Atlantic.
- Recommendation Managing turgor and temperature to reduce bruising would be more successful with Russet Burbank.
