Abstract: | Summary The relationships between the number of initial sprouts, the number of main stems, stolons and tubers per plant are depicted
in 4-quadrant figures. The number of sprouts per seed tuber varied because of different pre-sprouting conditions and/or because
of the use of different cultivars. Good linear relationships are shown between the numbers of sprouts and stems, stolons and
tubers, and sprouts and tubers, but especially between stolons and tubers within each trial with the one cultivar. When comparing
different experiments with the one cultivar the linear relationship between the numbers of stems and stolons disappeared.
When comparing different cultivars, no relation was found between the numbers of sprouts and stems. These two cases also led
to a statistically less significant relation between the number of sprouts planted and the number of tubers harvested. |
