“…However, Yuan et al [10] and Onder et al [54] reported a significant reduction in the tuber yield with decreasing levels of applied water. Alva et al [21] noted that the reduction in the total applied water from 14% to 20% of full irrigation reduced the total tuber yield from 7% to 28%, compared with full irrigation.…”

“…Abu-Zinada [19] and Badr et al [20] obtained higher yields when a high dose of N was applied. Alva et al [21] stated that the application of N in the form of urea at a rate of 336 kg N ha −1 achieved the highest yield with high quality tubers. The results obtained from different investigations on different N source or rates differ, as mentioned above.…”

Two field experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of three drip irrigation regimes (G1: 120% crop evapotranspiration (ETc), G2: 100% ETc, and G3: 80% ETc) and four nitrogen (N) source treatments (S0: non-fertilized; S1: urea, S2: ammonium nitrate, and S3: ammonium sulfate on water consumption use, water utilization efficiency, chlorophyll, yield and tubers quality of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.; cv Diamond) under a drip irrigation system during two successive winter seasons (2015/16 and 2016/17)). Nitrogen fertilization was applied at 380 kg ha−1 as standard application for potato in the investigated area. The highest tubers yield was obtained from potato grown with G1 S2 (65.8 Mg ha−1), G1 S3 (63.6 Mg ha−1), G2 S2 (64.1 Mg ha−1), and G2 S3 (62.4 Mg ha−1), while the lowest tubers yield was obtained from potato grown with G3 S0 (10.1 Mg ha−1) and G2S0 (17.4 Mg ha−1). Different treatments of N source resulted in a significant increase for water use efficiency (WUtE) compared with unfertilized treatment. For the interaction effect, the highest WUtE was obtained from potato grown with G3 S2 (18.1 kg m−3), followed by G3 S3 (17.6 kg m−3), while the lowest WUtE was obtained from plants grown with G3S0 (3.0 kg m−3). However, the highest chlorophyll content was obtained from plants grown with G1 and any N source, followed by G2S1-3, while the lowest chlorophyll content was obtained from those grown with G3S0. The highest N, S, protein, and P contents in tubers were obtained from plants grown with G3S3, G3S2, and G2S2, while the highest K content in tubers was obtained from plants grown with G1S1 and G1S2. In concussion, the integrative effects of G1 or G2 with S2 or S3 is recommended for high productivity, while the integrative effects of G3S3 and G3S2 are recommended for high quality tubers.

“…Increasing aphid resistance and stress tolerance in potato has great potential to contribute to food and income security, mitigate poverty, and reduce farmers' risk in vulnerable agricultural environments [29,33]. Several studies have reported the response of potato to drought stress [34][35][36], aphids to drought stress [37][38][39], and potato-aphid interactions [40,41]. However, to our knowledge, no study has determined the response of potato cultivars which have different levels of drought tolerance to aphid attacks.…”

Drought stress on plants can cause cellular water deficits and influence the physiology of host plants, which alter the performance of insect pests. This study was conducted to determine the effect of drought and aphid (Myzus persicae Sulzer) infestation on three potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) genotypes under greenhouse conditions. A factorial experiment involving three potato genotypes, two levels of drought, and two levels of aphid infestation was conducted. The potato genotypes possessed different levels of tolerance to drought and are described as tolerant (Qingshu 9), moderately tolerant (Longshu 3), and sensitive (Atlantic). Sixty-day-old potato plants were infested with aphid nymphs and monitored for 20 d. There was a significant variety × drought × aphid interaction effect on the parameters measured. The genotype Atlantic, which is sensitive to drought, exhibited greater tolerance to aphid infestation under drought or no drought conditions than the other genotypes. This genotype also exhibited poor host acceptance and the aphid survival rate, colonization success, and average daily reproduction were low. Qingshu 9, which is tolerant to drought, was highly susceptible to aphid infestation and exhibited high host acceptance and greater aphid survival rate, colonization success, and average daily reproduction compared to the other genotypes. This study demonstrates that the biochemical and morphological traits that confer drought tolerance in potato do not necessarily confer aphid tolerance.

Biomass accumulation and partitioning into different plant parts is a dynamic process during the plant growing period, which is influenced by crop management and climate factors. Adequate knowledge of biomass partitioning is important to manage the crops to gain maximum partitioning of assimilates into plant parts of economic significance, i.e. tubers in potato. This study was conducted using two potato cultivars grown in a sandy soil with center pivot irrigation under full irrigation (FI; irrigation to replenish 100% of water loss by evapotranspiration [ET]) and deficit irrigation (DI; replenish only 80% ET) and two nitrogen(N) rates (pre-plant + in-season N rates of 56 + 112 or 168 + 336 kg/ha). Plant samples were taken on 22, 44, 66, and 98 days after seedling emergence (DAE). With high N rate, tuber biomass of "Umatilla Russet" cultivar in relation to total plant biomass varied from 23% -88% and 25% -86% over 22 to 98 DAE for the FI and DI treatments, respectively. The corresponding partitioning ranges were 30% -93% and 38% -93% at the low N rate. With respect to the "Ranger Russet" cultivar, biomass partitioning to tubers ranged from 36% -82% and 23% -84% for the FI and DI, respectively, at the high N rate, and 29% -87% and 39% -95% at the low N rate. Overall, this study demonstrated that within the range of N rate and irrigation treatments the biomass portioning into tubers was largely similar in both cultivars.
