  1. The middle segment of the tuber root was divided into three regions: region 1 refers to the periderm, which includes the sclerenchyma, parenchyma and phloem; region 2 refers to the storage parenchyma; and region 3 refers to the tuber centre, which includes xylem vessels and fibres. Values with different letters within one dividual are significantly different at p < 0.05
