  • Potatoes in the Home Garden
    for the Gardener Growing Potatoes in the Home Garden f you could cultivate a vegetable crop that could be grown in almost every climate (except hot tropical zones) from sea level to 15,000 feet, could be eaten for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks, prepared in a myriad of ways, be easily kept Iwithout processing or refrigeration for up to 6-8 months, produced high yields (2-5 pounds per square foot) and was extremely nutritious (high in protein, vitamin C, niacin, B vitamins, iron and energy) but low in calories (sans butter and sour cream), you would wouldn’t you? If you did you would be in the minority of home gardeners. Most gardeners eschew the illustrious “spud” (Solanum tuberosum), thinking it doesn’t warrant space in the small garden and that home grown potatoes don’t taste much better than their store-bought counterparts. Not true! Wrong on both counts. Solanum tuberosum (the Andean potato) originated in the highlands of the Andes mountain ranges of South America (Peru, Columbia, Ecuador, Bolivia) at elevations up to 15,000 feet. Potatoes have been in cultivation for more than 2000 years and there are more than 2,000-3,000 Beveridge Melisa varieties extant today. It is an herbaceous perennial in its native habitat, but treated as a tender annual in the temperate zones and damaged by frost at 28-30°F. The plant’s only edible portions are the tubers produced underground, apically (at the tip) on stolons (horizontal underground stems; see drawing at right). While potatoes produce viable seed, the genetic makeup of sexually- produced plants is so diverse and variable (heterozygous) that production from this seed is negligible.

Generate efficacy data on products/programs for control of potato psyllids. 2. Examine the effects of insecticides that target potato psyllid on chemical control strategies for other insect pests. 3. Determine if potato psyllid control foments outbreaks of other insect pests. 4. Determine the effect of potato psyllid control on natural enemies. Comparative biology of potato psyllid haplotypes and implications for Northwest potato growers Dave Horton, Joe Munyaneza, Rodney Cooper, Kylie Swisher (USDA-ARS) OBJECTIVES: 1. Examine overwintering biology of haplotypes. 2. Bittersweet nightshade as an alternate host. 3. Examine vector efficiency of haplotypes. 4. Develop means for visually separating haplotypes on yellow sticky cards. Population genetics of the potato psyllid in the inland Northwest Bill Snyder, Zhen "Daisy" Fu (WSU) OBJECTIVES: 1. Working with the WSU core genomics facility, sequence the entire genome of a representative of a population of northwest psyllids. 2. Use the RAD-tag approach to determine relatedness among psyllids collected from potato and nightshade, across collection points in WA, OR and ID. 3. Determine whether distinct genetic groups that we have identified differ in their likelihood of carrying the zebra chip pathogen, and whether these groups exist in different parts of the inland northwest.

  • Methods for Inoculation of Tomatoes and Potatoes with Alternaria Solani in the Greenhouse and Field
    Methods for inoculation of tomatoes and potatoes with Alternaria solani in the greenhouse and field June 2014 Gerd Stammler, Simone Miessner, Franziska Böhme BASF SE, Agricultural Center, Speyerer Strasse 2, 67117 Limburgerhof, Germany Isolation of strains of A. solani Dried leaf samples with typical Early blight symptoms are sterilized, lesions were cut out and placed on 2 % malt agar (at 16°C or 22°C). Outgrowing mycelium is transferred on new Petri dishes. Pure cultures are made by additional transfers. Isolated species are determined by their spore size and shape. Inoculation of tomatoes with single isolates in the greenhouse Three weeks old tomato plants (cv. Goldene Königin) are inoculated with spore suspensions from different isolates. 10 ml spore suspensions of each A. solani isolate are made with deionized water or 0.2 % or 2 % malt solution, respectively. The concentration of the spore suspensions should be around ~105 spores per milliliter. Inoculated plants are incubated in a moist chamber at 20°C and 95 % relative humidity. During the first 24 hours a lid covers the plants in order to prevent the spore suspension from washing off the wet leaves. The plants are kept for one week and rated regularly to measure the disease progress. Disease progress is highest if spores are suspended in 2 % malt, followed by 0.2 % malt and water (Figure 1). Experiments can also be done in the same way with older plants (Figure 2) Figure 1. Tomato seedlings inoculated with different isolates of Alternaria solani. Spores were suspended in water, 0.2 % malt and 2 % malt, respectively.
