A Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) technique was applied for the detection of Potato leaf roll polerovirus (PLRV) in dormant potato tubers. A primer pair was designed from the coat protein-encoding fragment of the PLRV genome that amplified a 336-bp product. The amplified product was detected in nucleic acid preparations from leaves and tubers of 5 cultivars and from pur...

potato is one of the main crops which is suffering from the great losses in storage and the most conventional method of its tuber rot is using hazardous chemicals. using antimicrobial potential of lichens can be one of the safe, green, environment friendly methods for plant diseases management. in this study, antimicrobial activity of acetone, methanol, chloroform extracts of ramalina capitaat,...

Off-flavors frequently appear during the storage of potato flakes. Volatile profile analysis performed by solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry revealed that hexanal is the main compound that appears during the storage period. Hexanal may be a degradation product of linoleic acid formed through linoleic acid hydroperoxide cleavage. Profiles of hexanal precursors were ...

We assess consumer demand for traditional fresh potatoes and processed potato products and willingness to pay for new experimental low-acrylamide and sulfite-free potato products. Demand for fresh potatoes, potato chips, and fries is unaffected by household income or education, but demand for chips and fries is affected by consumer age and exercise habits. Subjects display increased willingness...
