Commercial Application of CIPC Sprout Inhibitor to Storage Potatoes
are designed to store 50,000 to more than 500,000 hundredweight (cwt) of potatoes in bulk piles. Successful long-term storage of potatoes requires using a sprout inhibitor in combination with proper storage management. Chlorpropham (CIPC) is the most effective post-harvest sprout inhibitor registered for use in potato storages in the United States. Its use as a potato sprout inhibitor was first...
متن کاملEffects of Production History and Gibberellic Acid on Seed Potatoes
In the present study effects of production history on tuber sprout, root, stem development and crop yield of seed potato cultivars Fambo and Van Gogh were investigated in the High Grade Area of Finland (64.9 N, 25.4 E). The haulms of seed potatoes were destroyed at the time of flowering (50 days after planting, DAP), three weeks after flowering (75 DAP) and as a control the haulm was left to na...
متن کاملPotato Dormancy Regulation: Use of Essential Oils for Sprout Suppression in Potato Storage
Sprout suppression is essential in assuring potato quality. Release of natural tuber dormancy is affected by production as well as storage environmental factors, cultivars and tuber metabolic activities. Plant growth regulators are also shown to play important roles in regulating tuber dormancy. In commercial storage, sprouting is primarily controlled by low temperature combined with chemical i...
متن کاملInfluence of Thermal and Pressure Treatments on Inhibition of Potato Tuber Sprouting
Alexandre E.M.C., Rodrigues I.M., Saraiva J.A. (2015): Influence of thermal and pressure treatments on inhibition of potato tubers sprouting. Czech J. Food Sci., 33: 524–530. The effect of short duration thermal treatments (60 and 65°C for 1 min) and low intensity high pressure treatments (15 and 30 MPa for 10 min) on the sprouting of potato tubers was applied individually and sequentially, as ...
متن کاملEffect of Low Levels of Ethylene on Sprouting of Potatoes in Storage
Potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum cv. Sebago) were stored at 20 °C in air containing ethylene at <0.005, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, or 10 μL·L–1 and the level of sprouting was measured over 35 days. The time for tubers to develop an average of one sprout per tuber was found to linearly increase as the log10 ethylene concentration decreased with the effect present over the whole range of concentration. Afte...
