Abstract: | Treatment of vegetative parts of potato plants two weeks before the harvest with 0.2% 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid (CEPA) delayed the sprouting of tubers and increased the resistance of tubers to infections caused byPhytophthora infestans, Erwinia carotovora andFusarium spp. during the storage period. Levels of free, soluble ester- and glycoside-bound phenolic acids and cell wall-bound phenolics were determined in cortical parenchyma of tubers (periderm). The enhancement of phenolic acids in tubers from treated plants was caused primarily by the increase in the contents of free vanillic, caffeic andp-hydroxybenzoic acids and cell wall-bound ferulic, vanillic andp-coumaric acids. |
