The current experiment was adopted during the summer 2018, fall 2018/2019 and summer 2019 respectively at the Experimental Farm of Baloza station, Desert Research Center. North Sinai Governorate, Egypt to study the effect of different doses of irradiation (0, 20, 30 and 40 Gy), three irrigation levels (100, 80 and 60% field capacity on growth, yield and its quality of some potato cultivars (Spunta, Cara, Caruso and Hermes). Treated Spunta cultivar pre planting with 20 (Gy) and irrigated with 80% field capacity was the best treatment for increasing number of aerial stem/plants, leaf area, total chlorophyll in leaves, average tuber weight, and total yield/fed. Hermes cultivar with 20 (Gy) and irrigation level of 80% was the best for increasing dry matter content in tuber in both mutagenic generations.

Evaluating resistance of potato cultivars and breeding clones to golden cyst nematode in China.

Plant Dis

January 2025

Institute of Plant Protection, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, No. 2 yuanmingyuanxilu, beijing, Beijing, China, 100193;

The golden cyst nematode, Globodera rostochiensis, is a regulatory pathogen that can significantly reduce potato yields and hinder the international trade of potatoes. Unfortunately, this nematode has been reported in southwestern China. Nevertheless, limited information exists on the resistance levels of Chinese potato germplasm, especially primary commercial cultivars, to G.

With advances in long-read sequencing and assembly techniques, haplotype-resolved (phased) genome assemblies are becoming more common, also in the field of plant genomics. Computational tools to effectively explore these phased genomes, particularly for polyploid genomes, are currently limited. Here we describe a new strategy adopting a pangenome approach.

Efficient detection of eyes on potato tubers using deep-learning for robotic high-throughput sampling.

Front Plant Sci

December 2024

Center for Precision and Automated Agricultural Systems, Department of Biological Systems Engineering, Washington State University, Prosser, WA, United States.

Molecular-based detection of pathogens from potato tubers hold promise, but the initial sample extraction process is labor-intensive. Developing a robotic tuber sampling system, equipped with a fast and precise machine vision technique to identify optimal sampling locations on a potato tuber, offers a viable solution. However, detecting sampling locations such as eyes and stolon scar is challenging due to variability in their appearance, size, and shape, along with soil adhering to the tubers.
