“…The other treatments achieved an intermediate average value. The obtained results are in parallel, more or less, with those recorded by Bari et al (2001), Boghdady et al (2017), Muthanna et al (2017) and Shedeed et al (2018). Plant height increment could be accounted for the mode of action of Br and Se physiological promotive effects which enhance plant photosynthetic activity and concomitant vigour plant growth (Nowak et al, 2010;Chu et al;Yao et al, 2010).…”

Enhancing potato growth and yield attributes via both Boron (Br) and Selenium (Se) is a great potential nowadays. Therefore, the present investigation was done to study the effe ct of Boron and Selenium singly or in combination as foliar application on plant growth, yield and quality of two potato cultivars 'Lady Rosetta and Caruso' during both seasons of 2016/2017 and 2017/2018. The experimental layout was split plots system in a randomized complete blocks design with three replications. Cultivars were arranged as the main plots and concentrations of Boron and Selenium singly or in combination were assigned as sub-plots. Boron was sprayed in three concentrations 0, 50, and 100 mg/l whereas Selenium was used at 0, 5, and 10 mg/l concentrations twice at 55 and 70 days after planting. The study indicated that plant growth and yield of potato plants were significantly enhanced by Boron and Selenium treatments. Plant height, tuber dry weight, number of tubers/plant, tuber yield/plant, tuber yield/feddan, tuber TSS %, ascorbic acid, tubers sugars (i.e. starch, reducing, non-reducing and total sugars), leaf total chlorophyll, leaf and tubers contents of N, P, K, Br and Se of both potato cultivars ' Lady Rosetta and Caruso' were significantly enhanced by Boron (100 mg/l) combined with Selenium (5 mg/l) foliar application at 55 and 70 days after planting during both seasons of the study.

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a leading staple food in the diet of the world population and providing of regular caloric requirements for human and deliver many essential elements, and vitamins including K, P, Mn, Mg, foliate, vit. C, and vit. B 6 . Increasing its potential yield could be hypothesized via environmental friendly agricultural supplements as seaweed extracts (SWEs) instead of mineral fertilization, and certain micronutrients as boron (B).Therefore, two field experiments were carried out during both seasons of 2016 / 2017 and 2017 / 2018, in a private farm, at El-Nobaria region, El-Behiera Governorate, Egypt, under open field conditions in sandy soil to investigate the effects of two independent variable as SWE (control, 1000 and 2000 mg/l),and B (control, 25, 50 and 75 mg/l) and their combinations on the growth performance (i.e. vegetative growth-related attributes and the yield) of 'Caruso' potato cultivar. Both conducted experiments were factorial experiments laid out in randomized complete blocks design (RCBD), with three replicates. Each replicate included 12 treatments. All determined treatments were distributed randomly within each block. Foliar application of SWE B at 2000; brought about the highest mean values of the studied vegetative growth attributes (plant height [cm] and number of main stems / plant) compare with the other treatments during both seasons. Likewise, pertaining the tuber yield, the same combination; led to the highest mean values for number of tubers / plant, tuber fresh weight / plant (g), total yield / feddan, as compared with control treatment during both seasons. Hence, the above-mentioned combination is the appropriate for both tested independent variables for the best growth performance of the tested dependent variable (i.e., vegetative and yield attributes of the given cultivar).Nevertheless, applying SWE at 2000 mg / l × B at 50 mg / l; brought about the best potato for processing.

“…The low correlation between the content of nutrients in the aerial part and in the tubers could indicate a low dependence on the accumulation of nutrients in the aerial parts with respect to the tuber growth, which agrees with what was proposed by Gómez et al (2019a). On the other hand, the correlation between the fresh weight of the tubers and the content of Ca-Mg-S confirms the importance of these nutrients for crop yield (Hamdi et al, 2015;Helal & AbdElhady, 2015;Muthanna et al, 2017;Seifu & Deneke, 2017;Wang et al, 2020). The models proposed for this relationship are a first approach to estimating the content of Ca-Mg-S in the tubers, according to the tuber growth.…”

“…An adequate supply of Ca-Mg-S has positive effects on yield (Muthanna et al, 2017;Seifu & Deneke, 2017;Wang et al, 2020) and tuber quality (Singh et al, 2018;Assunção et al, 2020). A deficit of these nutrients leads to less translocation of photoassimilates to the tubers, low mechanical resistance, low specific gravity, and multiple physiological disorders, such as hollow heart Schabow & Palta, 2019).…”

Critical dilution curves for calcium, magnesium, and sulfur in potato (Solanum tuberosum L. Group Andigenum) cultivars Diacol Capiro and Pastusa Suprema

Diagnostic tools must be developed to optimize the management of calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and sulfur (S) in potato crops. This research aimed to develop the critical dilution curves for Ca, Mg, and S in potato (Solanum tuberosum L. Group Andigenum), establishing harvest indices and characterizing the nutrient relationships. Four field experiments were established in two growth cycles in the localities of Facatativá (high fertility soils) and Chocontá (low fertility soils) in Colombia. Two cultivars (Diacol Capiro and Pastusa Suprema) and two levels of fertilization (0 and 100% of macro and micronutrients) were evaluated. The dry biomass and Ca, Mg, and S concentration in tubers and aerial parts were measured from the formation of main stems until tuber maturation; this information was used to calculate the critical concentrations (Cac, Mgc, Sc), harvest indices, and nutrient correlations. The critical curves established were for Capiro: Cac = 1.7326W-0.2956, Mgc = 0.7191W-0.2803, Sc = 0.6461W-0.3904 and for Suprema: Cac = 1.523W-0.2559, Mgc = 0.6507W-0.236, Sc = 0.7669W-0.3932. Critical levels were established for five phenological stages. Capiro had a higher accumulation of Ca, Mg, and S in the tubers independently of locality, while Suprema had better performance in Chocontá. The accumulation of mineral nutrients in the tubers followed the order Ca<Mg<S. Capiro was a genotype with greater Ca-Mg-S uptake and better adaptation to locations. The Cac, Mgc and Sc curves provided a tool to carry out the nutritional diagnoses at critical stages of development and they are the first ones reported for potato of Group Andigenum.
