Abstract

Dioscorea spp is a wild plant which is an important food source, however there are no published studies on the nutritional composition of this plants growing at Manokwari Regency. Physical analysis includes color testing using the brand Minolta Reflectance Chromameter type CR-300. Chemical analysis includes HCN content, proximate composition, and crude fiber determining based on AOAC standard methods. The results of the physicochemical characterization of tubers in four species of Dioscorea spp explorated in Manokwari Regency showed that their variations influenced by genetic difference, soil fertility, location, and plant age.
