Effect of 60Co Gamma Radiation on the Shelf Life of Potato Tubers

Loss of quality and limits on the storage life of potatoes are very difficult problems for farmers around the world. Farmers normally apply chemicals to minimize the number of aerobic colonies and increase the storage life of potato tubers for year-round supply. However, these methods pose harmful h...
