This study investigates the enabling factors and barriers for upscaling saline agriculture, focusing on four salt-tolerant crops including potato. The research identifies that personal motivations and natural resource interactions are key factors for the successful expansion of potato cultivation in salt-affected regions.
This study investigates the effects of potato starch and acetylated potato starch on the oil absorption and structural properties of fried noodles. It demonstrates that acetylated potato starch enhances gluten cross-linking and increases resistant starch content, leading to a significant reduction in oil absorption compared to regular potato starch.
This study identifies the m6A demethylase StALKBH10B as a negative regulator of salt tolerance in potato by modulating the stability and translation of transcripts in the ABA signaling and flavonoid biosynthesis pathways. The research provides a transcriptome-wide m6A map and highlights specific candidate genes for breeding salt-tolerant potato cultivars.
This study evaluates the impact of substituting chemical nitrogen fertilizers with organic alternatives on potato and wheat yields in Northwest China. The research demonstrates that a 60% replacement level optimizes soil nitrogen transformation and enzyme activity, significantly increasing potato tuber yield and nitrogen transport efficiency.
This review explores the application of nanotechnology in potato cultivation to combat major microbial diseases like late blight and soft rot. It highlights how nanoparticles can deliver pesticides, act as biosensors, and enhance genome-editing tools like CRISPR/Cas9 to develop disease-resistant potato varieties while activating plant defense pathways.
This study identifies Streptomyces galilaeus as the dominant pathogen causing potato common scab in northern China and analyzes its genetic diversity through genome resequencing. The findings provide a critical foundation for developing targeted disease control measures and breeding resistant potato varieties tailored to specific regional pathogen populations.
This study evaluates the performance of early-bulking potato genotypes within intensified cropping systems to enhance land use efficiency and system productivity. The research demonstrates that selecting specific potato varieties allows for the inclusion of additional crops per year, significantly increasing economic returns and potato equivalent yields.
This study identifies StMYC1 as a key transcription factor in potato jasmonate signaling that simultaneously enhances tuber yield and herbivore resistance. Overexpression of StMYC1 improves photosynthetic capacity and starch biosynthesis while increasing the accumulation of steroidal glycoalkaloids, making it a promising target for potato breeding.
This study employs an integrative approach combining physiological, metabolomic, and transcriptomic analyses to investigate the mechanisms of drought stress response in potatoes. The research provides molecular insights into how potato plants adapt to water deficit at both the gene expression and metabolic levels.
This study investigates the effects of varying nitrogen fertilizer rates and intra-row spacing on the growth, yield, and profitability of the 'Belete' potato variety in Ethiopia. The findings suggest that applying 110 kg N ha⁻¹ with a 30 cm spacing optimizes seed tuber productivity and provides the highest economic return for farmers.
