Abstract

The effect of storage on carbohydrate composition of three redgram (TTB-7, BRG-1 and ICP-8863) and three greengram (Pusa Bisaki, KDM-1 and China Moong) varieties during storage was studied. The total free sugars, starch and dietary fibre were evaluated both in control and in samples stored for six months. Decrease in percentage of (a) free non-reducing sugars, (b) starch and (c) pentose sugar of dietary fibre was observed during storage. Concomitantly insect infested samples showed increase in reducing sugar, dietary fibre and also hexose sugars of dietary fibre.
