Mitochondrial Activity in Healthy White Potato Tubers and in Potatoes Infected with Ceratocystic fimbriata
نویسندگان
چکیده
phosphorylatson, if any, only occurs in later stages of infection. Isolation of mitochondria (Mw) from potato tuber tissue (Solanum tuberosum L.) which are reasonably intact and show respiratory control by adenosine diphosphate (ADP) has been des cribed recently.3,4) The present paper deals with some properties of Mw prepared from healthy, infected and cut potato tuber tissues. The method of extraction of Mw could be improved, by which Mw were isolated in a better condition than those previously des cribed,4,5) having a respiratory control ratio

Study of Biochemical Changes in Solanum tuberosum Due to Infection and Storage
This paper presents the pathological and biochemical changes among the freshly harvested potato tubers, freshly harvested infected tubers, cold stored healthy tubers and cold stored rotted tubers. In the study, fresh and infected samples of potato tubers were taken from the farmer’s field to understand the pathological and biochemical diversity. After the examination, potatoes were kept in the ...
متن کاملSeed potato production system in Japan, starting from foundation seed of potato
Potato is one of the staple crops cultivated in upland farming in Japan and is propagated vegetatively by means of tubers. However once infected with diseases, potato yield decreases significantly. And one seed potato can produce approximately only 10 potato tubers. To improve the production system of seed potatoes in Japan, Japanese government established a three-stage propagation system for t...
متن کاملIncreased disease resistance and enzyme activity induced by ethylene and ethylene production of black rot infected sweet potato tissue.
Exposure of root tissue from a susceptible variety of sweet potato to low concentrations of ethylene induced a resistance to infection by Ceratocystis fimbriata and an increase in the activity of peroxidase and polyphenoloxidase in the tissue. Susceptible tissue that was inoculated with a pathogenic strain of C. fimbriata or a nonpathogenic strain that can induce resistance liberated more ethyl...
متن کاملInfection Pattern of PVY and PLRV in Potato Tubers Obtained from Potato Plants Infected with Both the Viruses
Experiments were conducted to study the plant growth and tuber yield of the seed potato collected from PVY and PLRV infected plants. The seed potatoes were graded as under size (<28 mm), A grade ( 28-40 mm), B grade (41-55 mm) and over size (>55 mm) which were planted following RCBD in the field. Third generation seed potatoes of Diamant variety were used. The incidence of viruses was confirmed...
متن کاملBioactive Compounds in Potato Tubers: Effects of Farming System, Cooking Method, and Flesh Color
We investigated the effect of cultivation system (conventional or organic), cooking method, and flesh color on the contents of ascorbic acid (AA) and total phenolics (TPs), and on total antioxidant activity (Trolox equivalents, TE) in Solanum tuberosum (potato) tubers. The research material, consisting of 4 potato cultivars, was grown in experimental fields, using organic and conventional syste...
