Effect of storage temperature of seed potatoes on grwoth and yield of early potato crop in the north indian plains

Ezekie, R. (Central Potato Research Institute, Shimla (India))
In a field experiment conducted at Central Potato Research Station, Modipuram, potato seed tubers stored at 4,12 and 20°C were planted in mid-September, to study the effect of storage temperature on crop growth and yield. Seed tubers stored at 12 and 20°C, which were physiologically older than those stored at 4°C, produced plants with reduced growth vigour. These plants were more susceptible to the high temperature conditions that prevail during crop growth and as a result the yield was reduced.
