“…Potato ( Solanum tuberosum ) is a staple of the world’s diet and is grown in more than 100 countries. It is the fourth largest crop after corn, wheat and rice ( Boivin et al, 2020 ). At present, the yield of potato is much higher than that of wheat, corn and rice, so there is room for improvement.…”

Effective storage of potatoes is very important for the food industry. Given the problems involving rotten potatoes and low quality during storage, harvested potatoes from the main potato-producing areas in the Qinghai Plateau were treated by selection and air drying (Group “A”) and the others were stored directly as controls (Group “C”). Then, the microbial community structure and diversity of diseased potato tubers from four main production areas were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing technology in different storage stages. The results showed that the community composition and diversity of microbes in different regions and storage periods were different, and the dominant fungi in diseased potato tubers were Boeremia in Huangyuan (HY), Maying (MY) and Zhongling (ZL) and Apiotrichum in Huangzhong (HZ) at the genus level. The dominant bacterial genus was Pseudomonas, but its abundance varied in samples from different regions and storage periods. In the analysis of indicator species, there were some common species and endemic species in each region and period, and the period with the largest number of different species was the third period. Among the four storage periods, the region with the largest number of different species was HZ. Some fungi, especially Fusarium and other potato pathogens, were more abundant in control Group “C” than in treatment Group “A.” In the diversity analysis, the α diversity of fungi in Group “C” was higher than that in Group “A,” but the α diversity of bacteria in Group “A” was higher than that in Group “C,” and there was no obvious regularity with storage time. The β diversity varied significantly among different regions. In addition, through functional prediction analysis, it was found that a plant pathogen was one of the main nutritional types of fungi, which indicated that treatment by selection and drying could significantly reduce phytopathogenic microbe and other microorganisms and could be used as an effective measure for potato storage compared with the prevention and control by drugs that can cause environmental pollution. Further analysis of co-occurrence network showed that pathogenic fungi Fusarium was negatively correlated with pathogenic bacteria Erwinia, and there is also a negative correlation between pathogens and antagonistic microorganisms indicated that there were various symbiotic relationships among microorganisms in diseased potatoes. This study may provide a theoretical basis for biological control of potato cellar diseases and the maintenance of potato quality during long-term storage.

Late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans is a destructive disease in potato production, which can lead to crop failure in severe cases. This study combined visible/near-infrared (Vis/NIR) spectroscopy with machine learning (ML) and chemometric methods for rapid detection of potato late blight. The determination of disease severity was accomplished by two methods directly or indirectly based on differences in reflectance. One approach was to utilize ML algorithms to build a model that directly reflects the relationship between disease level and spectral reflectance. Another method was to first use partial least squares to construct a predictive model of internal physicochemical values, such as relative chlorophyll content (SPAD) and peroxidase (POD) activity, and then use an ML model to classify disease levels based on the predicted values. The classification accuracy based on these two methods could reach up to 99 and 95%, respectively. The changes in physicochemical values during the development of disease were further investigated. Regression models for fitting changes in SPAD value and POD activity were developed based on temperature and incubation time, with determination coefficients of 0.961 and 0.997, respectively. The prediction of epidemic period was realized by combining regression and classification models based on physicochemical values with an accuracy of 88.5%. It is demonstrated that rapid non-destructive determination of physicochemical values based on Vis/NIR spectroscopy for potato late blight detection is feasible. Furthermore, it is possible to guide the control of disease throughout the epidemic period.

Postharvest losses are a key stumbling block to long-term postharvest storage of potato tubers. Due to the high costs and lack of infrastructure associated with cold storage, this storage method is often not the most viable option. Hence, sprout suppressants are an appealing option. In most developing countries, potato tubers in postharvest storage are accompanied by a rapid decline in the potato tuber quality due to the physiological process of sprouting. It results in weight changes, increased respiration, and decreased nutritional quality. Therefore, proper management of sprouting is critical in potato storage. To avoid tuber sprouting, increased storage and transportation of potatoes demands either the retention of their dormant state or the application of sprout growth suppressants. This review evaluates the current understanding of the efficacy of different sprout suppressants on potato storability and the extension of potato shelf-life. We also consider the implications of varied study parameters, i.e., cultivar, temperature, and method of application, on the outcomes of sprout suppressant efficacies and how these limit the integration of efficient sprout suppression protocols.
