Effect of seed tuber size and pretreatment on the total yield potato

Investigation of the influence seed tuber size and seed tuber pre-treatment on the total yield of early potato varieties Cleopatra conducted in Badovinci (western Serbia) during the 2007 and 2008 year.

Description
Summary:Investigation of the influence seed tuber size and seed tuber pre-treatment on the total yield of early potato varieties Cleopatra conducted in Badovinci (western Serbia) during the 2007 and 2008 year. Examination were carried out by planting tuber weight 40 ± 5g, 60 ± 5 g i 80 ± 5 g. The research results indicate that the seed tuber size and pretreatment very significantly affected on all investigated characteristics potatoes. In both years the highest yield of tubers was established in the variant with the application of pretreatment and planting of the largest seed size fraction mass (80 g). Higher yields of potato tubers in moist conditions in western Serbia (Macva) of early varieties Cleopatra were achieved by planting larger mass of tubers (80 g) and removing the apical sprouts on tubers.
