Changes in cell wall components and polysaccharide-degrading enzymes in relation to differences in texture during sweetpotato storage root growth.

Sweetpotato has special texture characteristics, which directly affect the eating quality and post-production processing quality of sweetpotato. To investigate the texture change mechanism of sweetpotato during the growth process, this study selected two varieties with significant differences in texture from 35 varieties. The storage roots were sampled at 50, 80, 110, and 140 days after planting.
