“…Several Fusarium isolates were isolated from infected potato tubers, including F. nygamai, F. solani, F. acutatum, F. subglutinans, F. proliferatum, and F. oxysporum (Tiwari et al 2020). The potato cultivar 'Cara' is highly susceptible to the disease known as dry rot (Awad et al 2022).…”

Potato (Solanum tuberosum) crops have experienced a 22% reduction due to attacks from microbial pathogens and pests. Dry rot disease occurred from risks in El-Minya governorate, Egypt, where potato is the major cultivated crop. Potato cultivar ‘Cara’ samples were collected from the markets of six regions in El-Minya for isolation. They were also tested for the application of biosynthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) for disease management. The ability of Exserohilum rostratum to synthesize ZnONPs was documented via UV-visible, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectrum, and transmission and scanning electron microscopy. Spherical shape and crystallite small size (51.0 ± 3.0 nm) were attributed to the created ZnONPs. The ZnONPs were applied in the bio-control of the causative agent (Fusarium nygamai) of dry rot disease and large economic loss of potato cv. ‘Cara’ productivity. The mycosynthesized ZnONPs by E. rostratum at 100 μg/ mL (3 mM) showed antifungal activity against F. nygamai with higher reducing value of mycelium growth diameter 2.0 ± 0.14 cm compared to Revanol 50%, traditional product with a diameter of 3.85 ± 0.10 cm. Overall, ZnONPs are an excellent agent that can be applied to repress the most common fungal disease of potato.

“…Mainly unfavorable combination of soil and climatic conditions may contribute to certain difficulties in the decomposition of the applied fertilizers and the uptake of nutrients from it. This may cause various types of stress and disorders in the development of potato plants, which should encourage the use of specific fertilization treatments to counteract these unfavorable changes [29][30][31][32][33].…”

This paper presents the results of the authors’ own research and literature research on the impact of selected environmental and agronomical factors on the yield of potato grown under the organic system and the possibility of increasing the yield. The results are based on research conducted for several years at the Institute of Plant Breeding and Acclimatization in Jadwisin, Poland. The influence of factors such as soil quality and climatic conditions, selection of varieties, seed potato preparation, irrigation of plantations, complementary fertilization, and protection against the late blight was described. The aim of this work was to indicate which of these factors affect the yield increase and to what extent. It was stated that it is possible to increase the yield of potato tubers grown under the organic system through all of the proposed treatments. In our studies, using drip irrigation and complementary fertilization had the greatest effect (25.5 and 19%, respectively). Seed potato presprouting had a smaller influence (4.3%) on the final tuber yield. In the years with high pressure of the pathogen Phytophthora infestans, the selection of cultivars with high resistance was very important. Most of the agronomical treatments not only improved the total yield of tubers, but also increased the share of tubers with a larger diameter. A very high variability of potato yielding depending on weather conditions and a selection of cultivars was emphasized. We can say that a proper agronomical practice carried out on an organic potato plantation can largely eliminate the yielding gap between a conventional and an organic system.

Phosphorus Sources and Sheep Manure Fertilization for Soil Properties Enhancement and Sugar Beet Yield

et al. 2023

Inorganic fertilizers abundant used cause hazardous environmental effects and unsafe food. Contrarily, organic fertilizers are usually utilized as soil amendments and they boost crop yield quantity and quality. A field experiment was carried out to study the effect of some phosphorus (P) sources, such as rock phosphate (RP), superphosphate (SP), and sheep manure (SM), on some soil chemical properties, growth and yield in sugar beet plants. The field experiment was arranged in a completely randomized block design with three replicates for two growing seasons (2020/21and 2021/22). Results showed significant increases in yield and physiological parameters in all treatments. Co-applying of RP with SP caused a significant increase in the SOM, N, P, and K by 70.45, 31.52, 128.35, and 24.85% respectively compared to T1. All applications to the soil significantly increased the fresh weights of sugar beet roots were significantly increased by 24.71, 17.92 and 25.72% for T2, T3, and T4 respectively over the control. Also co-application of SM and SP (T3) lead to the highest sucrose content which increased by 5.09% than the control. Therefore, we concluded that integrated fertilizer management improves soil properties and yield so these results can be used to employ to reduce the detrimental consequences of using chemical fertilizers.
