The uptake of sucrose into isolated discs cut from sink (growing) and source (sprouting) potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tuber tissue was studied. The uptake of sucrose into sink-tuber discs demonstrated biphasic kinetics. The large saturable component was inhibited by incubation of the discs with p-c
Individual tubers from mature plants of cultivars Pentland Dell and Estima were harvested from experimental plots in two successive years and analysed for a-solanine, a-chaconine and total glycoalkaloid concentration (a-solanine and a-chaconine combined) using high-performance liquid chromatography.
In two experiments, using different testing methods, the number of newly formed cysts was determined on nine potato genotypes with resistance from various sources . Ten potato cyst nematode (PCN) populations were used in these experiments . Rank correlation between numbers of cysts over potato genot
