“…The MTY showed extremely high variability, ranging from the level of 24-38 to 43-75 t ha −1 , depending on the year and fertilization treatments. This variability clearly stresses the high sensitivity of potato to environmental conditions during early growth [27]. The favorable growth conditions during this study were guaranteed by the high amount of precipitation in June and July of about 150 mm (Figure 1).…”

The Unexploited Potential of Nutrient Analysis in Potato Tissues at the Onset of Tuberization for Tuber Yield Prediction

Nutrient analysis of potato leaves in early growth is not sufficient for a reliable prediction of tuber yield. This hypothesis was verified based on a field experiment conducted during 2006–2008. The experimental factors were: nitrogen (N) rates (60, 120 kg ha−1), fertilizers (Urea, Urea + inhibitor—NBPT ([N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide]), and sulfur rates (0, 50 kg ha−1). Plant material for nutrient determination (N, P, K, Mg, Ca, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu), which included leaves, stems, and stolons + roots (R+S), was sampled at BBCH 39/40. The marketable tuber yield (MTY) was in the ranges of 43–75, 44–70, and 24–38 t ha−1, in 2006, 2007, and 2008, respectively. The MTY and contents of N, Zn, and Cu, irrespective of the potato tissue, showed the same seasonal pattern, reaching the lowest values in the dry 2008. The N content in stems was the best tuber yield predictor. A shortage of K in stems and Mg and Cu in R+S, due to the opposite effect of Ca, reduced the N content. An N:Ca ratio in stems greater than 10:1 resulted in yield decrease. A reliable indication of nutrients limiting the tuber yield at the onset of potato tuberization requires data on the nutrient status in both leaves and stems.

“…A shortage of N during the young growth of tubers reduces their initial weight, which in turn has an adverse effect on the final tuber yield [31,32]. An early, negatively induced pattern of potato tuber growth lasts until the end of the potato growth season, resulting in a much lower yield [27].…”

“…In the case of drought, the majority of studies investigating its effects on root growth ( Tourneux et al, 2003 ; Lahlou and Ledent, 2005 ; Mane et al, 2008 ), canopy growth ( Jefferies and MacKerron, 1987 ; Jefferies, 1993a ; Deblonde and Ledent, 2001 ; Lahlou et al, 2003 ), and yield ( Levy, 1986b ; Jefferies and MacKerron, 1989 ) are at least 10 years old. There have been recent studies, published in the last five years, observing the effects of drought on the morphophysiology of potato ( Aliche et al, 2018 ; Chang et al, 2018 ; Michel et al, 2019 ; Pourasadollahi et al, 2019 ), but such studies are limited in the scientific literature. Unlike in other crops, including tomato ( Susič et al, 2018 ), grape ( Zovko et al, 2019 ), and maize ( Asaari et al, 2019 ), there has been even less research investigating the effects of drought on potato using modern phenotyping methods, such as multispectral, hyperspectral or three-dimensional imaging.…”

Morphophysiology of Potato (Solanum tuberosum) in Response to Drought Stress: Paving the Way Forward

et al. 2021

The cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is currently the third most important food crop in the world and is becoming increasingly important to the local economies of developing countries. Climate change threatens to drastically reduce potato yields in areas of the world where the growing season is predicted to become hotter and drier. Modern potato is well known as an extremely drought susceptible crop, which has primarily been attributed to its shallow root system. This review addresses this decades old consensus, and highlights other, less well understood, morphophysiological features of potato which likely contribute to drought susceptibility. This review explores the effects of drought on these traits and goes on to discuss phenotypes which may be associated with drought tolerance in potato. Small canopies which increase harvest index and decrease evapotranspiration, open stem-type canopies which increase light penetration, and shallow but densely rooted cultivars, which increase water uptake, have all been associated with drought tolerance in the past, but have largely been ignored. While individual studies on a limited number of cultivars may have examined these phenotypes, they are typically overlooked due to the consensus that root depth is the only significant cause of drought susceptibility in potato. We review this work, particularly with respect to potato morphology, in the context of a changing climate, and highlight the gaps in our understanding of drought tolerance in potato that such work implies.

“…It is possible that the abundancy of above-ground biomass, characterized by the NDVI-values, does not associate well with tuber yields, which causes uncertainty in estimations of the pre-crop values. The harvest index (HI) for potatoes is high and quite variable (Chang et al, 2016, 2018) compared to that of cereals, rapeseed and grain legumes (Peltonen-Sainio et al, 2008; Gómez et al, 2017; Storer et al, 2018). The value of spring barley, wheat and faba beans as pre-crop for annual production grasslands was negative, but data was scarce and available only for one year.…”

Pre-crop Values From Satellite Images for Various Previous and Subsequent Crop Combinations

et al. 2019

Monocultural land use challenges sustainability of agriculture. Pre-crop value indicates the benefits of a previous crop for a subsequent crop in crop sequencing and facilitates diversification of agricultural systems. Traditional field experiments are resource intensive and evaluate pre-crop values only for a limited number of previous and subsequent crops. We developed a dynamic method based on Sentinel-2 derived Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) values to estimate pre-crop values on a field parcel scale. The NDVI-values were compared to the region specific 90th percentile of each crop and year and thereby, an NDVI-gap was determined. The NDVI-gaps for each subsequent crop in the case of monocultural crop sequencing were compared to that for other previous crops in rotation and thereby, pre-crop values for a high number of previous and subsequent crop combinations were estimated. The pre-crop values ranged from +16% to -16%. Especially grain legumes and rapeseed were valuable as pre-crops, which is well in line with results from field experiments. Such data on pre-crop values can be updated and expanded every year. For the first time, a high number of previous and following crop combinations, originating from farmer’s fields, is available to support diversification of currently monocultural crop sequencing patterns in agriculture.
