“…α-solanine and α-chaconine occur in about the same concentration in potato tissues [ 7 ]. Four other glycoalkaloids can be detected in potato tissues in a lower quantity: solasonine, solamargine, leptinine I, and leptine II [ 8 ]. A study performed in the 1950s demonstrated the toxicity of α-solanine on potato pathogens, such as Fusarium spp.…”

Dickeya and Pectobacterium species are the causal agents of blackleg and soft rot diseases. This article explores the possibility of using the glycoalkaloids (GAs) naturally produced by the potato tuber after the greening process as a blackleg control method. We first tested the effect of GAs extracted from four potato cultivars on the growth and viability of one Dickeya and one Pectobacterium strain in growth media. Then, four years of field experiments were performed in which the incidence of blackleg was assessed in plants grown from the seed tubers of cv. Agria that were subjected to various greening treatments. In the growth media, all GAs isolated from the four cultivars appeared to be bacteriostatic and bactericidal against both bacteria strains. The inhibitory effect varied among GAs from different cultivars. Except for a one-year field trial, the blackleg incidence was lower in plants grown from green seed tubers without the yield being affected. The blackleg control was marginal, probably due to the low production of GAs by the tubers of cv. Agria after greening. Based on our findings, seed tuber greening has a good potential for blackleg control after the identification of varieties that present optimal GA composition after greening.

For potato production, continuous cropping (CC) could lead to autotoxicity buildup and microflora imbalance in the field soil, which may result in failure of crops and reduction in yield. In this study, non-targeted metabolomics (via liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS)) combined with metagenomic profiling (via high-throughput amplicon sequencing) were used to evaluate correlations between metabolomics of potato root exudates and communities of bacteria and fungi around potato plants to illustrate the impacts of CC. Potato plants were grown in soil collected from fields with various CC years (0, 1, 4, and 7 years). Metabolomic analysis showed that the contents and types of potential autotoxins in potato root exudates increased significantly in CC4 and CC7 plants (i.e., grown in soils with 4 and 7 years of CC). The differentially expressed metabolites were mainly produced via alpha-linolenic acid metabolism in plant groups CC0 and CC1 (i.e., no CC or 1 year CC). The metabolomics of the groups CC4 and CC7 became dominated by styrene degradation, biosynthesis of siderophore group non-ribosomal peptides, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, and biosynthesis of various plant secondary metabolites. Continuous cropping beyond 4 years significantly changed the bacterial and fungal communities in the soil around the potato crops, with significant reduction of beneficial bacteria and accumulation of harmful fungi. Correlations between DEMs and microflora biomarkers were established with strong significances. These results suggested that continuous cropping of potato crops changed their metabolism as reflected in the plant root exudates and drove rhizosphere microflora to directions less favorable to plant growth, and it needs to be well managed to assure potato yield.

Phytotoxicity refers to the capacity of chemical substances or environmental factors to have a negative impact on plants. This is a crucial issue in both the context of crop cultivation and environmental protection. The research results were based on a 3-year field experiment conducted at an experimental station in Jadwisin (52°28′ N, 21°02′ E) on loamy soil. The experiment was set up using a randomized sub-block design in a split–split–plot arrangement with three replications. The first-order factor consisted of potato cultivars, while the second-order factors were weed control methods: (1) without protection; (2) mechanical weed control, extensive mechanical treatments to close rows; (3) Sencor 70 WG—pre-emergence (PRE) of potatoes; (4) Sencor 70 WG + Titus 25 WG + Trend 90 EC—PRE of potatoes; (5) Sencor 70 WG—post-emergence (POST) of potatoes; (6) Sencor 70 WG + Titus 25 WG + Trend 90 EC—POST of potatoes; (7) Sencor 70 WG + Fusilade Forte 150 EC—POST of potatoes; and (8) Sencor 70 WG + Apyros 75 WG + Atpolan 80 SC—POST of potatoes. The phytotoxic effects of herbicides on potato plants and weeds were assessed every 7 days, starting from the date when the first signs of damage appeared until they stabilized or disappeared. Phytotoxic damage to potato and weed plants was caused by the chemical weed control methods used. The response of potato plants to herbicides was significantly related to the genetic traits of the cultivars and meteorological conditions in the years of research. Phytotoxicity is an important aspect in both agriculture and environmental protection. Research on its mechanisms and impact will enable the development of effective plant protection strategies and the preservation of ecosystem balance.
