Granule sizes of starches.

Tissues	d(0.1) (μm)	d(0.5) (μm)	d(0.9) (μm)	D[4,3] (μm)
Flesh	6.949 ± 0.001	16.439 ± 0.016	30.066 ± 0.034	17.496 ± 0.017
Peel	7.450 ± 0.002 ***	15.355 ± 0.001 ***	27.249 ± 0.005 ***	16.353 ± 0.001 ***

The d(0.1), d(0.5), and d(0.9) are the diameter of granules for which 10%, 50%, and 90% of particles are smaller by volume, respectively. The D[4,3] is the mean diameter by volume. Data are mean ± standard deviations for triplicate. * The data show significant difference between flesh and peel starches (*** p < 0.001).
