description | Yam is a tuber that sees high demand and consumption in Colombia, whose post-harvest quality losses during storage have been a challenge for farmers. At the Universidad de Cordoba-Colombia, Agronomy Engineering program, between March and August of 2019, a trial was established to estimate the effect of two growth regulators on the variables: tuber weight loss (TWL), tuber sprouting (TS), starch on a dry basis (SD), and reducing sugars (RS) during storage for 120 days, with evaluations every 30 days. A completely randomized design with a 4×2 factorial arrangement plus two additional treatments with three replications was used. Four concentrations of abscisic acid (ABA) were tested: 0, 10, 15, and 20 mg L-1 in the species D. alata and D. rotundata, plus paclobutrazol (PBZ): 15 mL kg-1, for a total of 10 treatments. Each experiment unit consisted of 12 tubers that were preserved in darkness at 23°C and 53% relative humidity on average. ABA and PBZ exerted effective control over the sprouting and weight loss of the tubers during the first 90 days of storage in both species, which averaged 24.4%, i.e. approximately 488 g, favoring high starch contents, and did not influence the reducing sugar content. |

El ñame es un tubérculo de alta demanda y consumo en Colombia, cuyas pérdidas de calidad poscosecha durante el almacenamiento han sido un reto para los agricultores. En la Universidad de Córdoba-Colombia, en el programa de Ingeniería Agronómica, entre marzo y junio de 2019, se estableció un ensayo para estimar el efecto de dos reguladores de crecimiento sobre las variables: pérdida de peso de los tubérculos (PPT), brotación de tubérculos (BT), almidón en base seca (AS) y azúcares reductores (AR), durante el almacenamiento por 120 días, con evaluaciones cada 30 días. Se utilizó un diseño completamente aleatorizado con arreglo factorial 4×2 más dos tratamientos adicionales, con tres repeticiones. Se probaron cuatro concentraciones de ácido abscísico (ABA): 0, 10, 15 y 20 mg L-1 en las especies D. alata y D. rotundata, más paclobutrazol (PBZ): 15 mL kg-1, para un total de 10 tratamientos. Cada unidad experimental estuvo conformada por 12 tubérculos, conservados bajo oscuridad, a 23°C y 53% de humedad relativa, en promedio. El ABA y el PBZ ejercieron control efectivo sobre la brotación y la pérdida de peso de los tubérculos durante los primeros 90 días de almacenamiento en ambas especies, que en promedio fue del 24.4%, es decir, 488 g, aproximadamente, favorecieron la conservación de altos contenidos de almidón y no influyeron en el contenido de azucares reductores.
