A mathematical model is developed and validated to predict the depth of cut in potato tuber slabs as a function of laser power and travel speed. The model considers laser processing parameters such as input power, spot size and exposure time as well as the properties of the material being cut such as specific heat, thermal conductivity, surface reflectance, etc. The model also considers the phase change of water in potato and the ignition temperature of the solid portion. The composition of the potato tuber is assumed to be of water and solid. The model also assumes that the ablation process is accomplished through ejection of liquid water, debris and water vapour, and combustion of solid. A CO2 laser operating in c.w. mode was chosen for the experimental work because water absorbs laser energy highly at 10.6 μm, and CO2 laser units with relatively high output power are available. Slabs of potato tuber were chosen to be laser processed since potato contains high moisture and large amounts of relatively homogeneous tissue. The results of the preliminary calculations and experiments concluded that the model is able to predict the depth of cut in potato tuber parenchyma when subjected to a CO2 laser beam. 相似文献

The subcellular localization of ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase, a key regulatory enzyme in starch biosynthesis, was determined in developing potato tuber cells by immunocytochemical localization techniques at the light microscopy level. Specific labeling of ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase by either immunofluorescence or immunogold followed by silver enhancement was detected only in the amyloplasts and indicates that this enzyme is located exclusively in the amyloplasts in developing potato tuber cells. Labeling occurred on the starch grains and, in some instances, specific labeling patterns were evident which may be related to sites active in starch deposition. 相似文献

Identification of molecular markers defining the end of tuber dormancy prior to visible sprouting is of agronomic interest
for potato growers and the potato processing industry. In potato tubers, breakage of dormancy is associated with the reactivation
of meristem function. In dormant meristems, cells are arrested in the G1/G0 phase of the cell cycle and re-entry into the G1 phase followed by DNA replication during the S phase enables bud outgrowth. Deoxyuridine triphosphatase (dUTPase) is essential
for DNA replication and was therefore tested as a potential marker for meristem reactivation in tuber buds. The corresponding
cDNA clone was isolated from potato by PCR. The deduced amino acid sequence showed 94% similarity to the tomato homologue.
By employing different potato cultivars, a positive correlation between dUTPase expression and onset of tuber sprouting could
be confirmed. Moreover, gene expression analysis of tuber buds during storage time revealed an up-regulation of the dUTPase
1 week before visible sprouting occurred. Further analysis using an in vitro sprout assay supported the assumption that dUTPase
is a good molecular marker to define the transition from dormant to active potato tuber meristems. 相似文献

Summary Variations in the ploidy level of 69 transgenic potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) plants regenerated from the tuber discs of 17 diploid lines were studied: 24 plants (35%) were diploid, the other 45 plants (65%) were tetraploid. Seventy-eight control regenerants obtained without Agrobacterium inoculation showed a relatively low tendency to tetraploidization (35%). The results obtained suggested that chromosome doubling occurred frequently in diploid potato lines during the tissue culture process for regeneration. Putative somaclonal changes in in vitro-formed tuber proteins were detected in three out of six transformants by electrophoretic analysis. 相似文献

甘肃省中部沿黄灌区轮作和连作马铃薯根际土壤真菌群落的结构性差异评估 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
甘肃省中部沿黄灌区是西北地区乃至全国重要的加工型马铃薯生产基地,然而因集约化种植带来的连作障碍问题已经严重影响到当地马铃薯种植业的可持续发展。采用大田试验与PCR-DGGE(Polymerase Chain Reaction-Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis)技术相结合的方法,并通过真菌的18S r DNA序列分析,评估轮作(未连作)和连作条件下马铃薯根际土壤真菌群落在组成结构上的差异,以期为甘肃省中部沿黄灌区马铃薯连作的土壤障碍机理研究提供新证据。结果表明,同轮作相比,连作显著降低了马铃薯块茎产量和植株生物量,并且随着连作年限的延长,连作障碍也愈加严重。长期连作(6a)也导致马铃薯根冠比显著增加和植株收获指数的显著下降。在根际土壤真菌的种群数量和多样性上,连作和轮作间无显著差异,但在群落组成结构上差异明显。真菌18S r DNA测序分析进一步表明,马铃薯连作较轮作相比增加了Fusarium sp.和Fusarium solani以及Verticillium dahliae的种群或个体数量,而这些真菌是导致马铃薯土传病害的主要致病菌类型。根际土壤真菌群落组成结构的改变特别是与土传病害有关的致病菌滋生可能是导致当地马铃薯连作障碍的重要原因。 相似文献

Brassica species are increasingly being used as cover crops to suppress soil-borne diseases in potato cropping systems. Experiments
were conducted in controlled environments and in the field to evaluate the effects of cover crop root or shoot or a combination
of root and shoot tissues on potato root and tuber health. In a lab assay we examined the extent to which volatile compounds
released from tissues of two cover crop species, rye (Cereale secale L.) and oriental mustard (Brassica juncea L.), could inhibit mycelium growth of two important potato diseases, Rhizoctonia solani and Pythium ultimum. Twenty-four hours into the lab assay, volatile compounds from all residues suppressed fungal growth. After 48 h, marked suppression
of hyphal growth continued in the presence of mustard residues but not in the presence of rye tissues or the control without
tissues. A 75 L volume container experiment evaluated the effect of incorporating different quantities of mustard shoot and
root tissues (none, comparable to field level and fourfold field level) into R. solani and P. ultimum infested soil on potato growth, root health and tuber disease. In the container study, incorporating mustard shoots at the
highest dose increased potato yield by 54% and reduced disease rating to 2.3 compared to a severe rating of 4.4 in the control.
In the field trial, potato growth, root health and tuber disease levels were evaluated in plots where disease management involved
either incorporation of mustard or rye cover crop roots, shoots and whole plants (roots plus shoots) or standard farmer practice
of a fumigated fallow as a control. White root tissue was used as a health indicator, and averaged 58 and 78% in the fumigated
control and mustard cover crop treatments, respectively. The highest healthy root tissue status (91%) was recorded where whole
plants of mustard were incorporated. In contrast to the visual assessment of root and tuber health, tuber yield in the field
was not influenced by cover crop treatment. Across experiments, the incorporation of or exposure to whole mustard plants was
consistently effective at suppressing soil-borne fungi and promoting healthy roots and tubers, especially at higher rates
of biomass. Mustard should be managed so as to maximize incorporated biomass for effective biofumigation. Multipurpose management
requiring removal of mustard shoots is incompatible with promoting potato rhizosphere health. 相似文献

The effects of broadcast granular, placed liquid and foliar fertilisers on the tolerance of potatoes to infection by potato cyst nematodes were investigated. The tolerance of the potato cv. Pentland Dell was not significantly improved by fertiliser application type but placed liquid fertiliser, with or without foliar applications, increased the concentrations of N, P and K measured in whole plant dry matter of PCN infected plants. The tolerance of the potato cv. Sante was not statistically improved by altering the balance of fertiliser nitrogen applications between planting and tuber initiation or by applying foliar nitrogen. Nitrogen applications of 120 kg N ha-1 at planting and a further 120 kg N ha-1 at tuber initiation supplemented with foliar N, however, achieved a larger tuber yield than the same nitrogen programme without foliar N and gave a significantly greater yield than the application of 240 kg N ha-1 at planting plus foliar N. The emergence of both cultivars was delayed in the absence of oxamyl. N, P and K concentrations within whole plant dry matter were significantly higher in plants from oxamyl treated plots and both N and K concentrations were significantly increased by increasing the quantity of N at planting, at 56 DAP. Splitting the fertiliser N between planting and tuber initiation appears to be important in maintaining the availability of this nutrient to PCN infected plants throughout the season. 相似文献

The potato tuberworm, Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller), is a major pest of potatoes in fields and traditional storage. A common method of nonrefrigerated storage is to pile potatoes in straw-covered heaps in the field. Tubers may be stored up to 3-4 mo in this manner, until the next harvest. We studied the dynamics of potato tuber moth infestation associated with such field storage in a 12-wk experiment in Israel. We set up six potato heaps, and sampled them for potato tuber moth at different locations at weekly intervals. Potato tuber moth infestation was significantly higher at the perimeter of the heaps than at their center, but it did not differ between bottom, mid-height, and top of the heaps. The proportion of potato tuber moth-infested potato tubers increased from 10 to 65% over the course of the experiment, and the mean number of potato tuber moth larvae per tuber increased from 0.25 to 2.50. Potato tuberworm populations increased sharply after 3, 6, and 9 wk of study, possibly corresponding to successive generations that developed within the heaps. This interpretation is supported by calculations of potato tuberworm generation length based on temperature data. Catches in pheromone traps that were placed near the heaps were not correlated (spatially and temporally) with potato tuberworm densities within heaps, hinting that migration among heaps did not considerably affect within-heap population dynamics. Potato tuberworm levels were not correlated with ambient temperatures, perhaps because of the warm, humid, and constant microclimate within the heaps. We discuss the significance of our findings for control efforts of the potato tuberworm. 相似文献

3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGR, EC1.1.1.34), the key enzyme in isoprenoid biosynthesis, was purified from microsomes of potato tuber tissue, and a polyclonal antibody and two monoclonal antibodies against the purified enzyme were prepared. HMGR protein content was measured by immunotitration and radioimmunoassay using these antibodies. HMGR activity was very low in the fresh tissues of both potato tuber and sweet potato root. The activity in potato tuber was increased by cutting and further by additional fungal infection of the cut tissues. In sweet potato root tissue, the activity was scarcely increased after cutting alone, but was markedly increased by additional fungal infection or chemical treatment. The HMGR protein contents in both fresh potato tuber and sweet potato root tissues were also very low, and increased markedly in response to cutting and fungal infection. From these results, we proposed a hypothesis on the induction mechanism of HMGR after cutting and fungal infection in potato tuber and sweet potato root tissues. 相似文献

The sink capacity of plant storage organs influences crop economic yield and relates to the number and volume of their cells. To obtain a better understanding of their contributions to the growth of potato microtubers produced in vitro, the number and volume of the cells in the tuber tissues were measured as tubers grew. Two potato cultivars, E-Potato 1 and Mira were employed and the results showed that cortex, perimedulla and pith tissue contributed for about 30, over 65 and up to 3% to the volume of the mature microtuber, respectively. The number of cells and cell volume increased simultaneously as the microtubers grew and the relationships could be described by a power function, Y = aW
b. However, the rate of cell division was greater than the rate of cell expansion and the former contributed more than the latter to the increase in tuber size. The rate of cell division was greatest in the cortex and least in the pith, but, because the perimedulla forms the largest part of the tuber, cell division in this tissue was particularly important. The regulation of cell division to improve the production of usable microtubers is discussed. 相似文献

The relationships between rain and blight (Phytophthora infestans) were studied in unsprayed crops of cultivars differing widely in foliage and tuber susceptibility. The occasions when tubers were infected depended on rain and not cultivar, but numbers of tubers infected after rain was affected by the blight susceptibility of the cultivar. Infected tubers were first found when less than 5 % (BMS key) of the potato foliage was infected but few fresh infections occurred when 50–75% of the foliage had been destroyed. Some tubers were infected after 8 mm rain (tubers near the surface with even less) but large increases in numbers of tubers infected usually occurred only after 25 mm or more had increased soil moisture to above ‘field capacity’ around the tuber for at least 24 h. The most susceptible cultivars Ulster Ensign and Arran Banner had all plants with some tuber blight, and some plants with all tubers affected and often many lesions per tuber. Cultivars of intermediate susceptibility, King Edward and Up-to-Date, had some plants without blighted tubers, many with a few and very few with all. The more resistant cultivars Majestic and Arran Viking had many plants without infected tubers and many lesions that aborted while still necrotic threads, so that the fungus did not spread. Most infections occurred through tuber eyes, lenticels or sometimes growth cracks. The distribution of blight lesions on tubers differed in the different seasons, for example, lenticels were most commonly infected on Arran Banner and Ulster Ensign and eyes on King Edward, Majestic and Arran Viking. In late or slowly developing attacks, lesions on stems became more numerous and larger than in fast, early attacks and were prolific sources of spores on King Edward and Up-to-Date but not on Majestic and Arran Viking. Because much rain water runs down the stems of Up-to-Date and King Edward, stem lesions can provide an important source of inoculum for tubers. 相似文献

Ectopic expression of a tobacco invertase inhibitor homolog prevents cold-induced sweetening of potato tubers. 总被引:25,自引:0,他引:25
We have transformed potato with Nt-inhh cDNA, encoding a putative vacuolar homolog of a tobacco cell wall invertase inhibitor, under the control of the CaMV 35S promoter. In transgenic tubers, cold-induced hexose accumulation was reduced by up to 75%, without any effect on potato tuber yield. Processing quality of tubers was greatly improved without changing starch quantity or quality, an important prerequisite for the biotechnological use of Nt-inhh for potato transformation. 相似文献

施肥对旱地全膜覆盖垄沟种植马铃薯耗水特征及产量的影响 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
用化肥减量和分期施肥、增施有机肥来替代化肥是提高半干旱区全膜覆盖垄沟种植马铃薯水、肥利用效率的有效途径.在4年大田定位试验基础上,设置传统施肥(F)、化肥减量25%花期追施(DF)、化肥减量50%花期追施并增施有机肥(OF)3种养分管理模式,通过测定马铃薯不同生育期的土壤含水量和产量,计算阶段耗水量和水分利用效率,研究施肥方式对半干旱区马铃薯耗水过程的调控及其对产量和水分利用效率的影响.结果表明: 马铃薯花期的土壤贮水量DF最高,但处理间差异不显著;花后DF和OF的耗水深度较F有明显增加趋势.与F相比,2011—2014年DF花前耗水量显著下降,花后耗水量分别增加了36.2%、23.0%、24.8%和19.0%;OF未显著降低马铃薯花前耗水,但2011、2012年花后耗水量增加了20.7%和16.3%.DF的马铃薯块茎产量在2012—2014年较F平均增加2595.1 kg·hm-2,水分利用效率(WUE)在2013、2014年分别显著增加14.4%和6.3%,达到显著差异;OF在2011—2014年平均马铃薯块茎产量较F增加了2945 kg·hm-2,且WUE在2012—2014年显著高于F.DF和OF均能显著调节马铃薯花前花后耗水量,使马铃薯块茎产量、水分利用效率增加,但OF的增加幅度更大. 相似文献

Abstract: The potato tuber moth is a noxious pest of potato in stores, where the use of repellent plants is an environmentally sound alternative to the application of chemical pesticides. We evaluated the protective effect of native Minthostachys species (Lamiaceae) against tuber infestation by the potato tuber moth in a rustic store in Cusco, Perú. We covered potato tubers with dried shoots of Minthostachys spicata and Minthostachys glabrescens and compared tuber damage with a control treatment of maize straw. We also conducted a no-choice oviposition bioassay in the laboratory, testing the oviposition deterrence of essential oils of M. spicata , M. glabrescens and Minthostachys mollis at natural concentrations. We recorded the number of eggs laid by mated moths on filter paper treated with essential oils of each of the three species and on two control treatments: hexane and untreated blank. Finally, we tested for differences in oviposition deterrence among five full-sib families of potato tuber moth raised under identical conditions. We found that dried, chopped leaves and flowers of Minthostachys species reduced the percentage of tuber damage in stores in comparison with the control (5% vs. 12%), but no difference in protection was found between species. Essential oils at natural concentrations deterred moth oviposition, reducing the number of eggs laid by about 80% compared with the control treatments; again, there were no significant differences between Minthostachys species. Finally, whereas we detected among-family variation in oviposition on filter papers treated with essential oils, no difference was found in the number of eggs laid on control substrates. Therefore, there was genetic variation for oviposition deterrence in the potato tuber moth and resistance to repellent plants might evolve thereafter. 相似文献

A potato tuber disk assay of culture broths which had been confirmed to show neither antibacterial nor phytotoxic activity resulted in the discovery of a novel type of crown gall formation inhibitors, julimycin B-II and julichrome Q1.3 These two bisanthraquinones, products of Streptomyces sp. TM-71, inhibited crown gall formation on potato tuber disks at a minimum inhibitory dose of 1.6 μg/disk without affecting the growth of Agrobacterium tumefaciens or the germination of alfalfa seeds. 相似文献

Improved purification of potato tuber invertase was achieved by utilizing a form of affinity chromatography between the enzyme and Concanavalin A (Con A) bound to Sepharose. Twenty-fold increases in specific activity were routinely obtained with this step and the enzyme was purified 190-fold over that found in the crude homogenate. The Con A-Sepharose chromatography step gave a greater purification than any other step in the invertase isolation procedure. There was up to 170% recovery of the activity loaded onto the column. α-Methyl-d-mannoside, sucrose, d-glucose and d-fructose eluted the enzyme from the Con A-Sepharose column with similar recoveries, although the volume of eluent required varied with the sugar. This unusually high recovery of invertase activity was obtained with some batches of tubers but not with others. There was evidence to suggest that the high recovery, or activation, may be due to the release of an inhibitor from the enzyme in the presence of Con A-Sepharose. Adsorption of invertase to Con A-Sepharose could be eliminated by incubation of the enzyme with α-mannosidase and β-glucosidase, indicating that potato tuber invertase is a glycoprotein. Proteinaceous inhibitor purification was improved by treatment of the tuber extract at low pH. 相似文献

Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity in potato (Solanum tuberosum) plants was high in stolons, tubers, roots, and flowers but low in leaves and stems. PPO activity per tuber continued to increase throughout tuber development but was highest on a fresh weight basis in developing tubers. PPO activity was greatest at the tuber exterior, including the skin and cortex tissue 1 to 2 mm beneath the skin. Flowers had high PPO activity throughout development, particularly in the anthers and ovary. Five distinct cDNA clones encoding PPO were isolated from developing tuber RNA. POT32 was the major form expressed in tubers and was found in all parts of the tuber and at all stages of tuber development. It was also expressed in roots but not in photosynthetic tissues. POT33 was expressed in tubers but mainly in the tissue near the skin. POT72 was detected in roots and at low levels in developing tubers. NOR333 was identical with the P2 PPO clone previously isolated from potato leaves (M.D. Hunt, N.T. Eannetta, Y. Haifeng, S.M. Newman, J.C. Steffens [1993] Plant Mol Biol 21: 59-68) and was detected in young leaves and in tissue near the tuber skin but was highly expressed in flowers. The results indicate that PPO is present as a small multigene family in potato and that each gene has a specific temporal and spatial pattern of expression. 相似文献
