Mainestay: A high-yielding, round white potato variety for fresh market     

A. F. Reeves  G. A. Porter  T. M. Work  D. H. Lambert  A. A. Davis  E. S. Plissey 《American Journal of Potato Research》1997,74(4):255-263

The Mainestay potato variety is high-yielding and late-maturing producing attractive, round, white-skinned, white-fleshed tubers with medium-shallow eyes. Its major use is expected to be as a maincrop tablestock variety. Mainestay appearance ratings are similar to those of Katahdin, and greening in Mainestay tubers is less than in Kennebec. Most boil and bake qualities were rated equal to Katahdin in at least half of the tests, and Mainestay usually has a low incidence of internal defects. However, purple streak, heat necrosis, vascular discoloration, and heat sprouts have been seen on occasion. Mainestay tubers do not show the net necrosis caused by potato leafroll virus, and have shown very little hollow heart or blackspot bruising. Mainestay is susceptible to common scab and acid scab, but moderately resistant to verticillium wilt (Verticillium, albo-atrum andV. dahliae), early blight (Alternaria solani), rhizoctonia (Rhizoctonia solani), dry rot (Fusarium sambucinum), and pink rot (Phytophthora erythroseptica). It is moderately susceptible to the common race of late blight (Phytophthora infestans). Mainestay tubers are slow to mature after vine kill, and additional time is required prior to harvest in order to allow for proper periderm development and to reduce storage losses.  相似文献   

St. Johns: A round white potato variety for fresh market     

A. F. Reeves  G. A. Porter  F. E. Manzer  T. M. Work  A. A. Davis  D. R. Hensel  J. R. Shumaker 《American Journal of Potato Research》1996,73(2):89-98

The St. Johns potato variety is high-yielding and late-maturing with attractive, round to oblong, white-skinned, white-fleshed tubers with mediumshallow eyes. Its major use is expected to be as a maincrop tablestock variety. Taste panels rated St. Johns better than or equal to Katahdin in texture, color, mealiness, and flavor. St. Johns tubers do not show the net necrosis caused by potato leafroll virus, and are resistant to golden nematode, corky ringspot, hollow heart, and blackspot bruising. St. Johns is also moderately resistant to greening, shatter bruise, verticillium wilt, early blight, common scab, the common race of late blight, leafroll,Fusarium sambucinum (dry rot) andErwinia carotovora (soft rot), although some breakdown has been reported in commercial storages. Symptoms of leafroll virus infection are somewhat difficult to detect.  相似文献

Net revenues of potatoes rotated with other crops     

John V. Westra  Kevin J. Boyle  Gregory A. Porter 《American Journal of Potato Research》1995,72(2):99-117

Using actual potato production data from Aroostook County, Maine, we investigate the possibility of producers increasing net revenues by modifying rotation practices. By examining rotations as a whole, and incorporating yield effects and changes in production costs across rotations, more realistic pictures of net revenues for each rotation develop than if net revenue for each crop within a rotation is considered independently. Our analyses indicate producers can alter their production practices within the range of rotations used locally to increase net revenues. A key finding confirms the synergistic interaction between grains underseeded with a green manure crop and round-white potato varieties, resulting in decreased production costs, greater potato yields, and increased net revenues.  相似文献   

Mainechip: A new chipping potato variety for cool storage processing     

A. F. Reeves  G. A. Porter  F. E. Manzer  T. M. Work  A. A. Davis  E. S. Plissey 《American Journal of Potato Research》1994,71(4):237-247

TheMaineChip potato variety is medium-maturing and has round, whiteskinned, white-fleshed tubers with shallow eyes, high specific gravity and moderate yields. Its major use is expected to be as a storage chipping variety since sugar build-up in storage is slow, and reconditioning is possible. This variety can be chipped directly from 7 C storage.MaineChip does not show the net necrosis caused by potato leafroll virus and is moderately tolerant to verticillium wilt (Verticillium alboatrum) and rhizoctonia (Rhizoctonia solani). It is also moderately resistant to blackspot and shatter bruise. Hollow heart is its major internal quality defect, being a problem in ten of the twenty-nine regional tests conducted over five years.  相似文献   

Coastal Chip: A chipping potato variety resistant to heat stress     

K. G. Haynes  R. W. Goth  S. B. Sterrett  B. J. Christ  D. E. Halseth  G. A. Porter  M. R. Henninger  D. R. Wilson  R. E. Webb  D. F. Hammond  R. Moore  F. L. Haynes  S. Arrendell  M. J. Wannamaker  S. L. Sinden 《American Journal of Potato Research》1992,69(8):515-523

Coastal Chip is a medium-late maturing potato chipping variety suitable for production in locations along the east coast of the United States where heat stress reduces internal quality of tubers. It yields as well as the variety Atlantic but is not as susceptible to heat necrosis. The specific gravity of Coastal Chip averages approximately 0.010 less than Atlantic at locations subject to heat stress. In the seed producing areas of Maine it’s specific gravity averages approximately 0.005 less than that of Atlantic. Tubers are round, netted-skinned, and have moderately deep stem and bud ends. Chips from Coastal Chip are slightly lighter in color than those produced by Atlantic. In mid-Atlantic states where heat stress adversely affects chip color Coastal Chip processes into chips for a slightly longer period of time after harvest than does Atlantic. Glycoalkaloid content of Coastal Chip averaged 7.9 mg/100 g fresh tissue. Sunburned (green) tubers of Coastal Chip develop purple streaks that remain following processing. Hills must be properly covered to reduce losses. Coastal Chip is resistant to race A of the golden nematode (Globodera rostochiensis) and potato virus A. It is tolerant to Verticillium wilt, more susceptible to common scab and Rhizoctonia than Atlantic and susceptible to potato virus X.  相似文献   

Relation of potato size to after-cooking blackening tendency     

James Siciliano  E. G. Heisler  W. L. Porter 《American Journal of Potato Research》1969,46(3):91-97

An observation made in the laboratory led to a two-year study showing a relationship between after-cooking discoloration and potato size. This relationship, the larger the potato the greater the blackening tendency, was consistent for all potatoes examined in this sudy whether they blackened severely or slightly. These findings may help future researchers correct the conditions that cause blackening.  相似文献   

Yield,market quality and petiole nitrate concentration of non-irrigated Russet Burbank and Shepody potatoes in response to sidedressed nitrogen     

Gregory A. Porter  Jonathan A. Sisson 《American Journal of Potato Research》1993,70(2):101-116

Russet Burbank and Shepody potatoes were grown with the following four nitrogen treatments: 1) 90 kg ha^?1 at planting; 2) 180 kg ha^?1 at planting; 3) 90 kg ha^?1 at planting followed by an additional 90 kg ha^?1 side-dressed after tuber initiation; or 4) 90 kg ha^?1 at planting followed by an additional 45 kg ha^?1 sidedressing. When compared to the 90 kg ha^?1 at-planting treatment, petiole NO₃-N concentrations increased rapidly after sidedressing and were relatively constant through mid-season. Sidedressed N significantly increased total yields relative to the 90 kg N ha^?1 at-planting treatment by an average of 5.0 t ha^?1 in three of nine experiments. Three of the experiments, where yields did not significantly increase, were on sites which were not expected to respond to supplemental N based on petiole NO₃-N testing. A red clover green manure crop was the previous crop for two of these experimental sites. Petiole NO₃-N testing criteria were only partially effective in detecting sites where response to sidedressed N occurred. When compared to a single application of 180 kg N ha^?1 at planting, split application of 90 kg N ha^?1 at planting followed by a 90 kg N ha^?1 sidedressing significantly reduced total yields in one of nine experiments and did not affect yields in the remaining eight experiments. Tuber uniformity was improved in three of nine experiments by the split-N treatment. Specific gravity was not significantly affected. Use of 45 kg N ha^?1 at side-dressing resulted in similar yield as the 90 kg N ha^?1 sidedressing, although yield of large-sized tubers was often decreased with the lower N rate. Use of reduced at-planting N rates followed by sidedressed N does not appear to increase yields of non-irrigated Russet Burbank and Shepody potatoes when compared to the at-planting N rates that are currently recommended. This management approach can maintain yields at levels comparable to at-planting N programs and does provide an opportunity to reduce N application rates on sites where soil N reserves and soil amendments may make a substantial N contribution to the potato crop. Side-dressed N application can frequently improve yields and tuber size when potatoes have been underfertilized at planting; however, some inconsistency in response can be expected in regions that rely on unpredictable natural rainfall.  相似文献   

Response of Russet Burbank and Shepody potatoes to nitrogen fertilizer in two cropping systems   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

G. A. Porter  J. A. Sisson 《American Journal of Potato Research》1991,68(7):425-443

Russet Burbank and Shepody potatoes were grown with at-planting N fertilizer rates ranging from 0 to 270 kg ha^?1 during 1986 through 1989. Experiments were conducted each year following small grains and red clover. Total yields and tuber size were strongly increased by N on most sites where potatoes followed small grains. Specific gravities declined with increasing N rate. Total yields of Russet Burbank and Shepody were optimized at an average of 196 and 211 kg ha^?1 of N, respectively, following small grains. The effect of N fertilizer on yields was much less dramatic following red clover. Total yields averaged 88% of maximum with only 45 kg ha^?1 of N applied, compared to 77% of maximum for this N rate following small grains. Total yields for the two varieties were optimized at 126 and 136 kg ha^?1, respectively. U.S. #1 yields were generally not increased at N rates above 45 to 90 kg ha^?1 following red clover and tuber size was not increased at rates above 90 to 135 kg ha^?1. Based on these studies, the N fertilizer credit for red clover grown prior to potatoes can be up to 75 kg ha^?1. Maintenance of tuber quality necessitates conservative use of N fertilizer when potatoes are grown following legumes. The highest N rates tested suppressed total yields of Russet Burbank, a late-season, indeterminate variety, by approximately 9% averaged over cropping systems.  相似文献
