Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Cultivar resistance reduces black dot disease severity on potato tubers.
- Observation Tubers of cv. Maris Piper were 43.8% unmarketable compared with 17.0% for cv. Sante in irrigated, fungicide-untreated plots.
- Observation Cultivar resistance acted only at the tuber level, not on stems, stolons and roots.
- Intervention effect Irrigation increased black dot severity on tubers in two trials, with a smaller effect when rainfall was high.
- Intervention effect Application of azoxystrobin consistently reduced black dot severity.
- Observation Interactions between the tested factors were significant for black dot severity.
