Potato
Solano tuberosum spp tuberosum
Auto-tetraploid
2n = 4x = 48
Alkaloid-free diploids which could be eaten in quantity
2,000-5,000 year BC
Center of origin is Peru – Bolivia ~ cultivation migration south to Chile.
Named Solanum tuberosum by Casper
Banhin in 1596
South American Indian called the crop papa. The
name potato comes from the
Caribbean Aeawak Indian
word batata
Solanum tuberosum ssp andigena ~ early 1600’s
Jerusalum artichoke
First commercialized in Ireland around 1700’s
Major food source by 1750’s
‘The Curl’

Fertility
Nitrogen: Plants turn light green., starts in older leaves.
Phosphorus: Plants are stunted and are darker green. Severe symptoms cause leaf blades to curl upwards and turn purplish.
Potassium: young leaves initially develop a glossy appearance. Severe symptoms can cause scorching of leaf margins.

Nutrient Use
Petiole Analyses
•Proper petiole sampling techniques are critical for determining potato nutrient status. •The fourth leaf is removed for analyses. •50 – 60 4th leaf samples should be taken per sample. •Leaflets are stripped and the petioles dried before shipping for analyses.

Virus Management options
Bacterial ring rot (Clavibacter michiganensis ssp. Seprdonicus)
Plant Certified Seed. If found, eliminate all potatoes on the farm. Clean and disinfect all machinary. No potato on the farm for at least 1 year. No seed potato production for ever.
Blackleg (Erwinia carotovora ssp. atroseptica)
Plant Certified Seed. Do not wash seed. Avoid excess irrigation pre-emergence. Use whole (uncut) seed.
Bacterial soft rot (Erwinia carotovora ssp. carotovora )
Avoid brusing. Properly heal (cure) potatoes before storage. Store as cool as possible. Avoid moisture and maintain low humidity.
Common scab (Streptomyces scabies)
Avoid low soil moisture during tuber set. No chemical control available.
Ring Rot Blackleg
Bacterial soft rot Common Scab
Virus Management options
Dry rot (Fusarium sambucinum or Fusarium coeruleum)
Harvest only mature tubers with well developed skin. Avoid tuber damage. Use fungicide (TBZ or Mertect) to treat tubers. Heal harvested tubers at 50-55oF before cold storage.
Potato early dying (Verticilliumj dahliae)
Plant Certified Seed and resistant cultivars. Grow potato once in 5 years. Apply fungicides through irrigation system. Minimize plant stress.
Early blight (Alternaria solani)
Provide proper nutrient and irrigation. Use fungicides when needed. Avoid harvesting when haulm is green.
Late blight (Phytophthora infestans)
Use certified seed. Use seed piece fungicide (Mancozeb, cymoxanil). Unitiate preventative fungicide program. If detected on tubers, increase storage temperature to completely dry tubers before storage. If >5% tuber symptems, don’t store.
Early dying Dry rot
Early blight
Late blight
Virus Management options
Rhyzoctonia, black scurf (Rizoctonia solani)
Use fungicide seed treatment. Plant into warm soils to encourage rapid emergence.
White mold (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum)
Use long crop rotation. Avoid prolonged canopy wetness. Use chemical control when scouted.
Pink Rot (Phytophthora erythroseprica)
Avoid waterlogging and tuber damage. Use fungicide (mefanoxam) on seed and as foliar.
Pythium leak (Pythium spp.)
Avoid tuber wounds, do not harvest at high temperatures (>65oF).
Silver scruf (Helminthosporium solani)
Plant disease-free tubers. Use fungicide on seed pieces. Keep low humidity in storage.
Powdery scab (Spongospora spp)
Plant certified seed. Follow a 4-year rotation. Use russet cultivars.

Harvest
Maturation Windrow
Harvest Haul
Good maturation and seed set before harvest.
Avoid tuber damage:
Appropriate soil moisture to move windrows and harvesters without excessive dirt clods.
Avoid tuber dehydration.
Avoid ‘sharp’ points of harvesters and elevators.
Reduce tuber dropping and impact bruising.
Harvest temperatures when tuber pulp is between 50 and 60oF.
Storage
Sufficiently strong lateral structure to support weight of the potato pile.
Adaquate insolation and moisture barrier.
Air circulation to supply air through the potato pile.
Moisture/humidity control.
Temperature control (raise and lower).
Multiple sensors and controllers to allow maintenance of automaticoptimum storage condition.
