To develop an in vitro assay method for bacterial wilt resistance in potato, resistant and susceptible standard genotypes were grown in vitro, and different conditions of inoculation with Ralstonia solanacearum phylotype I/biovar 4 were examined. The optimal condition was the inoculation of 6–8 leaf stage plants with a bacterial concentration of 102 CFU ml?1 and an incubation temperature of 28 °C. Evaluation of stem wilting was more reliable than that of leaf wilting. Using this method, nine genotypes with different resistance levels in the field were evaluated. Lower disease indices were obtained for genotypes with high resistance levels in the field, suggesting that this assay is useful for evaluating bacterial wilt resistance in a controlled environment. 相似文献

Foliar and tuber blight caused by Phytophthora infestans accounts for significant losses in potatoes in field and storage. Nevertheless, limited research has been published on the
effects of cultural practices on late blight control. Field experiments were conducted in two years on Howard gravely loam
soil in New York State to evaluate the effectiveness of mulching using oat straw and hilling in preventing tuber blight infection
for cvs Allegany and Katahdin. Potato hilling and mulching had little effect on foliar blight development. The cultivar affected
the disease development in the foliage, with cv. Allegany showing lower foliar late blight than cv. Katahdin. Tuber blight
incidence averaged 25% for cv. Allegany and 3% for cv. Katahdin in hilled plots, while in the mulched plots the incidence
of tuber blight averaged 33% for cv. Allegany and 10% for cv. Katahdin. The straw hay mulch was ineffective in tuber blight
control. Tubers set at a soil depth of more than 7 cm had lower tuber blight incidence than shallow tubers set at a depth
of less than 7 cm. In both years, hilling provided partial protection of tubers but its effectiveness was limited in the presence
of favourable conditions for late blight development. Even though large hills had proportionally a lower tuber blight incidence
than medium-sized hills, the difference between the different hill sizes was not significant. These studies suggest that the
use of cultivars with foliage resistance to late blight in combination with cultural practices may partially reduce the incidence
of tuber blight.

A series of field trials combining cultivars with different levels of resistance to Phythophtora infestans and different haulm killing methods was conducted in 1997, 1998 and 1999 to assess the contamination potential of the haulm.
In addition, the frequency of tubers with late blight was assessed after harvest and storage, combining effects of pretreatment
infection, infection by the haulm at harvest and the development of the disease during storage. Haulm killing was performed
by diquat (200, 400, 600 g a.i. ha-1), half cutting of the haulm in combination with diquat (100, 200, 300 g a.i. ha-1) or full cutting of the haulm. In those treatments where haulm killing was performed purely chemically the haulm remnants’
contamination potential tended to increase at reduced doses. Full mechanical destruction gave as low a contamination potential
as application of the full dose of chemical haulm killer. However, there were no consistent differences between the haulm
killing treatments in the frequency of blighted tubers after harvest and storage. This indicates that the input of chemical
haulm killers may be reduced. There was a large difference between years in tuber blight after harvest and storage, which
confirms that climatic factors are of major importance for tuber infection. The large difference found between the cultivars
in the frequency of tuber blight indicates that tuber resistance should be an important part of integrated late blight disease
management. 相似文献

In order to optimize potato crop management in organic farming systems, knowledge of crop growth processes in relation to
limitations and reductions by nitrogen (N) and disease is necessary. This paper examines the effect of different prevention
measures (seed tuber pre-sprouting, choice of cultivars: resistance to Phytophthora infestans; earliness of tuber initiation) against disease-related constraints on yields, depending on the N-mediated growing conditions
of organic potato crops. Under conditions of a relatively high N supply, accelerating the early development and tuber initiation
of potato crops by seed tuber pre-sprouting (yield increase of c. 18–23%) or the selective choice of cultivars with an earlier
tuber initiation (yield increase of c. 0–21%) are the most effective strategies in combating late blight. They bring forward
the crop development c. 7–10 days, escaping the negative impact of the fungus on tuber growth. Under conditions of a relatively
low N supply, these strategies do not affect final tuber yield. The reason for the differences of the effect depending on
N supply of the crops is, that the lower the N supply, the shorter the period of time over which tuber growth takes place,
independent of whether P. infestans becomes severe or not. Tuber growth of organic crops low in N has mostly ceased by the time late blight becomes potentially
important for limiting yield, with the consequence that preventative measures against P. infestans are meaningless. Surprisingly, the level of cultivar haulm resistance to late blight did not affect tuber yields in years
with an early and strong late blight development. Probably, the positive effect of a longer resistance to the fungus (c. 1 week)
was counterbalanced by a later tuber initiation (also c. 1 week). In years with a moderate late blight incidence, less susceptible
cultivars were able to produce higher tuber yields on fields with a lower N availability (c. 17–20%), probably due to higher
N use efficiency and a better match of N mineralization and N uptake. Under conditions of a relatively high N supply, the
tested cultivars with a higher haulm resistance to late blight were not able to improve tuber yields. 相似文献

Potato production on the island of Jersey, in the English Channel, is dominated by Jersey Royal, a selection of the early
cultivar International Kidney. Jersey Royal is very susceptible to Phytophthora infestans, the cause of potato late blight, and Jersey’s climate is frequently conducive to infection. During 2004–2006, isolates of
P. infestans were obtained from Jersey Royal plant samples from 41 different sites (24 crops, one infected tuber, 16 volunteers) and from
five outdoor tomato crops and characterised by mating type, mtDNA haplotype, Gpi and Pep allozyme genotype, metalaxyl resistance and RG57 fingerprint. A subset of 17 isolates was additionally characterised by simple
sequence repeat (SSR). All but one isolate from potato belonged to a single A1 multilocus genotype or a variant. The five
isolates from tomato represented three distinct genotypes, none of which was found on potato and included one which was A2
mating type. The populations of P. infestans on potato and tomato in Jersey appear distinct, with that on potato being highly clonal. 相似文献

Potato mop top virus (PMTV) induced necrosis can cause tuber quality loss at harvest and storage. Stored potatoes help maintain a constant supply of potatoes to the market and processing industry. PMTV-induced necrosis continues to develop during storage and appropriate timelines are needed for growers to make marketing decisions of their potatoes before incurring any significant quality losses. Survival analysis was used to estimate the time to event occurrence (PMTV-induced necrosis) in four (red-, russet-, white-, and yellow-skinned) potato market types across six post-harvest assessments conducted over two years. At each assessment the presence and absence of PMTV-induced necrosis was recorded and probability of tuber survival was estimated. Survival curves were significantly different among the four market type potato cultivars (Log-Rank test, P < 0.0005). Red- and russet-market type cultivars showed low and high survival probability, respectively, demonstrating that red cultivars need priority marketing. The survival probabilities decreased with increased storage time during both years, indicating that PMTV-induced necrosis development is dependent on potato cultivar and post-harvest storage. The median (50% of tubers with symptoms) survival times were estimated as 167 and 214 days for red- and other market type potato cultivars. The information from this study could potentially help growers regulate storage times for their cultivars to minimize tuber quality loss due to PMTV-induced tuber necrosis. 相似文献

Applied Biotechnology to Combat Late Blight in Potato Caused by <Emphasis Type="Italic">Phytophthora Infestans</Emphasis> 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Potato is an important crop, grown worldwide. It suffers from many pests and diseases among which late blight, caused by the
oomycete Phytophthora infestans, is the worst. The disease is still causing major damage in many potato production areas and control is only possible by
applying fungicides frequently. The knowledge on the molecular biology and genetics of the interaction between the plant and
the oomycete is developing rapidly. These are relevant fields of study, currently dominated by the discovery of many resistance
genes and numerous effector proteins and the analysis of their specific mode of action. These studies may yield essential
information needed for the development of durable resistance. The long-term and worldwide effort to breed for resistance so
far has had little effect. A novel breeding approach may change this. It is based on cisgenic modification (CM) consisting
of marker-free pyramiding of several resistance genes and their spatial and temporal deployment yielding dynamic varieties
that contain potato genes only. It is envisioned that this CM approach with potato’s own genes will not only prove societally
acceptable but may also result in simplifications in the legislation on use of the CM approach. Various parties in the potato
research arena intend to cooperate in this novel approach in a number of developing countries where potato substantially contributes
to food security. The use of resources such as land, water and energy improves when the effect of late blight is markedly
reduced. 相似文献

Drip irrigation in dry-seeded rice (DSR) is a new water-saving cultivation technology; however, very little is known of its productivity and water-saving capacities. The study was conducted for 2 years (2013 and 2014) in a split-plot design in three replicates with treatment combinations of four irrigation regimes [drip irrigation at 1.5, 2.25, and 3.0× pan evaporation (Epan) and flood irrigation at 3.0× Epan] and three nitrogen (N) levels (120, 150, and 180 kg ha?1). Drip irrigation in DSR resulted in higher grain yield (7.34–8.01 t ha?1) than flood irrigation (6.63–7.60 t ha?1) , with water savings of more than 40 %. Water-use efficiency with drip irrigation was higher (0.81–0.88 kg m?3) than flood irrigation (0.42–0.52 kg m?3) , being highest with drip irrigation at 1.5× Epan. Root density at soil depths of 15–30 cm was also higher in drip (0.86–1.05 mg cm?3) as compared to the flood (0.76–0.80 kg m?3)-irrigated crop. This study implicated that under water-scarce scenario, drip-irrigated DSR is a profitable, and water- and energy-saving technology. This study also suggested that policy focus in future must be tilted towards the promotion of solar-operated drip irrigation in those regions, where DSR is being promoted in the face of water and energy crisis. 相似文献

Late blight, caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary, is a devastating disease in potato and tomato and causes yield and quality losses worldwide. The disease first emerged in central America and has since spread in North America including the United States and Canada. Several new genotypes of P. infestans have recently emerged, including US-22, US-23 and US-24. Due to significant economic and environmental impacts, there has been an increasing interest in the rapid identification of P. infestans genotypes. In addition to providing details regarding the various phenotypic characteristics such as fungicide resistance, host preference, and pathogenicity associated with various P. infestans genotypes, information related to pathogen movement and potential recombination may also be determined from the genetic analyses. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis with the RG57 loci is one of the most reliable procedures used to genotype P. infestans. However, the RFLP procedure requires propagation and isolation of the pathogen and relatively large amounts of DNA. Isolation of the late blight pathogen is sometimes impossible due to the poor condition of the infected tissues or the presence of fungicide residues. In this study, we describe a procedure to identify P. infestans at the molecular level in planta using terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) of the RG57 loci. This T-RFLP assay is sufficiently sensitive to detect and differentiate P. infestans genotypes directly in planta without propagation and isolation of the pathogen, to facilitate the timely implementation of best management practices. 相似文献

The effect of chloropicrin fumigation on the soil populations of Spongospora subterranea and the development of powdery scab, formation of root galls and tuber yield was investigated in seven field trials conducted in Minnesota and North Dakota. Sixteen potato cultivars, with different levels of susceptibility to disease on roots and tubers, were planted in plots treated with chloropicrin at rates ranging from zero to 201.8 kg a.i. ha?1. The amount of S. subterranea DNA in soil was determined using qPCR. Bioassays were conducted to further assess the effect of chloropicrin fumigation on root colonization by S. subterranea in two potato cultivars with contrasting disease susceptibility. In the field, chloropicrin applied at rates between 70.1 to 201.8 kg a.i. ha?1 significantly decreased S. subterranea initial inoculum in soil but increased the amount of disease observed on roots and tubers of susceptible cultivars. The effect of increasing disease was confirmed in controlled conditions experiments. Although the amount of S. subterranea DNA in roots of bioassay plants increased with increasing chloropicrin rates, it remained similar among potato cultivars. Chloropicrin fumigation significantly increased tuber yield which in cultivars such as Shepody and Umatilla Russet were associated with the amount root galls (r = 0.30; P < 0.03). Results of these studies contradict earlier reports on the use of chloropicrin fumigation for the control of powdery scab. Factors other than inoculum level, such as environmental conditions that affect inoculum efficiency and host susceptibility, may be significant contributors to the development of powdery scab and root gall formation. 相似文献

Powdery scab caused by Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea (Sss) causes extensive losses in potato production systems globally. Two pot experiments were established in the greenhouse in summer 2013 and winter 2014 to evaluate the effectiveness of different soil chemicals, fumigant, amendments and biological control agents (BCAs) against Sss in the rhizospheric soil, potato roots and tubers. The study used visual assessment methods to assess the effect of treatments on root galling and zoosporangia production, and qPCR to measure Sss concentration in the soil and in the potato roots and tubers. All six soil treatments, namely metam sodium, fluazinam, ZincMax, calcium cyanamide, Biocult and a combination of Bacillus subtilis and Trichoderma asperellum recorded significantly (P < 0.05) lower numbers of zoosporangia in the roots compared to the untreated control. The same effect was observed on the concentration of Sss DNA in the roots at tuber initiation. A more diverse picture was obtained when root gall scores at tuber initiation and Sss DNA in the rhizospheric soil at tuber initiation and harvesting were compared. Significant differences (P < 0.05) were also noted in disease severity, disease incidence, and tuber yield between metam sodium, fluazinam, ZincMax, calcium cyanamide and the untreated control. Calcium cyanamide gave the highest tuber yield. The study demonstrated the potential of soil treatments such as metam sodium, fluazinam, ZincMax and calcium cyanamide in managing Sss in potatoes by reducing the pathogen both in the rhizospheric soil and the roots of the potato plant. 相似文献

The plasmodiophorid pathogen Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea causes powdery scab disease of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.), which severely affects tuber quality. Adequate chemical control of the disease is lacking, so breeding resistant potato
cultivars is important. Little is known about the mechanisms or genetics of host resistance, as the epidemiology of the pathogen
makes research on the disease difficult. An environmentally controlled disease screen that allows the accurate and repeatable
assessment of diseased tubers (rather than a ranking system) is required to study host resistance in more detail. A high-throughput
greenhouse disease assay is described that has been used to assess varying levels of tuber disease resistance of potato genotypes
for three consecutive Southern Hemisphere growing seasons (2001–2002, 2002–2003, 2003–2004). This assay allows the evaluation
of symptoms on tubers to verify resistance, rather than inferring the tuber infection on the basis of root galling or zoosporangial
root infection. The assay was used to determine the level of resistance of genotypes of both known and unknown resistance
status. The assay clearly distinguished the susceptible and resistant standards, and the results were highly correlated over
the three seasons. The most efficient ways of assessing tuber disease susceptibility of genotypes are discussed. The consistency
of the results and the ability to screen many genotypes confirms the value of the assay as a tool for early-generation selection
in a plant breeding programme. 相似文献

Verticillium wilt is a fungal disease of potato caused by two species of Verticillium, V. dahliae and V. albo atrum. The pathogen infects the vascular tissue of potato plants through roots, interfering with the transport of water and nutrition, and reducing both the yield and quality of tubers. We have evaluated the reaction of 283 potato clones (274 cultivars and nine breeding selections) to inoculation with V. dahliae under greenhouse conditions. A significant linear correlation (r = 0.4, p < 0.0001) was detected between plant maturity and partial resistance to the pathogen, with late maturing clones being generally more resistant. Maturity-adjusted resistance, that takes into consideration both plant maturity and resistance, was calculated from residuals of the linear regression between the two traits. Even after adjusting for maturity, the difference in the resistance of clones was still highly significant, indicating that a substantial part of resistance cannot be explained by the effect of maturity. The highest maturity-adjusted resistance was found in the cv. Navajo, while the most susceptible clone was the cv. Pungo. We hope that the present abundance of data about the resistance and maturity of 283 clones will help potato breeders to develop cultivars with improved resistance to V. dahliae. 相似文献

The precise level of environmental control in vitro may aid in identifying genetically superior plant germplasm for rooting characteristics (RC) linked to increased foraging for plant nitrogen (N). The objectives of this research were to determine the phenotypic variation in root morphological responses of 49 Solanum chacoense (chc), 30 Solanum tuberosum Group Phureja – Solanum tuberosum Group Stenotomum (phu-stn), and three Solanum tuberosum (tbr) genotypes to 1.0 and 0.5 N rate in vitro for 28 d, and identify genotypes with superior RC. The 0.5 N significantly increased density of root length, surface area, and tips. All RC were significantly greater in chc than in either phu-stn or tbr. Based upon clustering on root length, surface area, and volume, the cluster with the greatest rooting values consisted of eight chc genotypes that may be utilized to initiate a breeding program to improve RC in potato. 相似文献

Application time of nitrogen (N) fertilizer can significantly influence the yield and quality of potato tubers. The objective of this experiment was to assess the effects of N application time on dry matter accumulation in foliage and tubers, as well as on marketable tuber ratio, dry matter concentration, and specific gravity of the Chinese cultivar KX 13. The four treatments were as follows: all the 150 kg?N?ha?1 applied at planting (T1); 100 kg N ha?1 applied at planting and 50 kg N ha?1 applied 1 week before tuber initiation (20 days after emergence, DAE) (T2); 100 kg N ha?1 applied at planting and 50 kg N ha?1 applied 1 week before tuber bulking stage (35 DAE) (T3); and 100 kg?N?ha?1 applied at emergence and 50 kg N ha?1 applied 1 week before tuber bulking stage (35 DAE) (T4). For all treatments, 90 kg P2O5 ha?1 ((NH4)2HPO4) and 150 kg K2O ha?1 (K2SO4) were applied at planting. Thirty tons per hectare of marketable tuber yield was achieved with T3, while 23 t ha?1 marketable yield was achieved by applying all 150 kg N ha?1 at planting (T1). Relative to treatment T1, T3 also significantly increased harvest index (HI) from 0.76 to 0.86 and marketable tuber ratio from 64.8% to 79.2%. Applying N at planting in conjunction with dressing at 20 DAE (T2) gave a high marketable tuber ratio (74%) and HI (0.86), but the lower total tuber yield led to a lower marketable tuber yield. Without N application at planting (T4), N dressing did not increase the yield and HI. Treatments with N dressing had no significant effect on specific gravity or dry matter concentration of tubers. 相似文献

Cultivated potato is susceptible to many pests and pathogens, none of which is more of a threat to potato agriculture than
the late blight disease, caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary. To date all efforts to thwart this most adaptive of pathogens have failed, and early attempts to deploy
‘R genes’ introgressed from the wild Mexican hexaploid Solanum demissum ended in abject failure. With the advent of facile gene mapping and cloning, allied to knowledge of plant resistance gene
structure, renewed efforts are leading to mapping and isolation of new sources of late blight resistance in potato wild species,
many of which are being performed under the auspices of the BIOEXPLOIT project (Sub-project 2). We document recent advances
in late blight resistance gene mapping and isolation, and postulate how these genes, allied to knowledge of pathogen effectors
and their recognition specificity, may greatly enhance our chances of halting the progress of late blight disease in potato
crops worldwide. 相似文献

Potato response to environment, planting date and genotype was studied for different agro-ecological zones in Lesotho. Field experiments were conducted at four different sites with altitudes ranging from 1,655 to 2,250 m above sea level during the 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 summer growing seasons. Treatments consisted of three cultivars that varied in maturity type, two planting dates and four sites differing in altitude and weather patterns. Various plant parts were measured periodically. To understand and quantify the influence of abiotic factors that determine and limit yields, the LINTUL crop growth model was employed which simulated potential yields for the different agro-ecological zones using weather data collected per site during the study period. Observed actual crop yields were compared with model simulations to determine the yield gap. Model simulations helped to improve our understanding of yield limitations to further expand potato production in subtropical highlands, with emphasis on increasing production through increased yields rather than increased area. Substantial variation in yield between planting date, cultivar and site were observed. Average tuber dry matter (DM) yields for the highest yielding season were above 7.5 t DM ha?1 or over 37.5 t ha?1 fresh tuber yield. The lowest yield obtained was 2.39 t DM ha?1 or 12 t ha?1 fresh tuber yield for cultivar Vanderplank in the 2011/2012 growing season at the site with the lowest altitude. Modelled potential tuber yields were 9–14 t DM ha?1 or 45–70 t ha?1 fresh yield. Drought stress frequently resulted in lower radiation use efficiencies and to a lesser degree harvest indices, which reduced tuber yield. The site with the lowest altitude and highest temperatures had the lowest yields, while the site with the highest altitude had the highest yields. Later maturing cultivars yielded more than earlier maturing ones at all sites. It is concluded that the risk of low yields in rain-fed subtropical highlands can be minimised by planting late cultivars at the highest areas possible as early as the risks of late frosts permit. 相似文献

Weeds caused serious problem on yield reduction of basmati rice worldwide. Losses caused by weeds varied from one country to another, depending on the presence of dominant weeds and the control methods practiced by farmers; therefore, suitable plant population and weed management practices should be adopted. Keeping these in mind, a field experiment was carried out during kharif seasons of 2009 and 2010 at crop Research Centre of SVPUA&T, Meerut, India comprising 4 planting geometries, viz. 20, 30, 40, and 50 hills m?2 as main plot factor, and 5 weed management practices (Butachlor @ 1.0 kg ha?1, Butachlor @ 1.0 kg ha?1 fb (followed by) one hand weeding, Butachlor @ 1.0 kg ha?1 fb Almix @ 4 g ha?1, two hand weedings and weedy check) in a split plot design with 3 replications. Experimental results revealed that plant population of 50 hills m?2 proved superior over that of 20 hills m?2 in respect of weed density, weed dry weight, number of tillers m?2, yield attributes, grain, straw, and biological yields. The maximum grain yield (29.00 and 31.00 q ha?1) and straw yield (51.30 and 52.50 q ha?1) were recorded in 50 hills m?2 followed by 40 hills m?2 during 2009 and 2010, respectively. In respect of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium removal, a reverse trend was observed: the highest in 20 hills m?2 followed by 30, 40, and 50 hills m?2. As far as the weed management practices are concerned, both chemical and mechanical methods of weed control were found superior over weedy check. The lowest weed density, dry weight, and highest weed control efficiency, maximum length of panicle?1, number of panicle (m2), and 1000-grain weight and grain yield of 30.40 and 32.60 q ha?1 were recorded with two hand weedings which was at par with Butachlor @ 1.0 kg ha?1 fb one hand weeding over rest of the weed management practices. 相似文献
