Changes in amylase activity, starch and reducing and non-reducing sugars contents were monitored during ripening of mango fruits (Mangifera indica L.). The climateric raising in mango fruit is marked by an appreciable increase in the activity of amylase, reducing and non-reducing sugars contents and decrease in the starch content. The fruit affected with spongy tissue exhibited much lower amylase activity and reducing and non-reducing sugars, but exhibited much higher starch content during storage at 12 ± 2° C and 90 ± 5% RH for 28 days, when compared to healthy tissue of ‘Tommy Atkins’. Whether this is caused due to adverse effects on certain enzyme activities during ripening is not clearly known. These dates showed that carbohydrate metabolism is an important feature during ripening of mango.

Amylase activity was higher in tubers stored at 2°C and mare marked in the soaked ones (both in water and in GA<sub>3</sub>). In the late and difficult-sprouting cv. Uran, sokaing resulted in increased amylolytic activity also at 8°C stored tubers. On the contrary, the acid phosphatase activity was a little higher at 8°C than at 2°C stored tubers. At the former temperature two peaks of activity were marked:, in November–December and February–March.
