I recently had the opportunity to speak at the Utah State University Vegetable IPM Winter Webinar Series (January 20, 2021). Nick Volesky and I talked about common insect and disease problems of potatoes. It wasn’t possible to discuss all diseases, or spend a lot of time on the diseases we did discuss, but we were able to give a thumbnail view of some common diseases. We briefly covered the following topics:
- The role of seed certification
- The importance of quarantines, eradication, sanitation, fertility, and proper irrigation
- Fusarium dry rot
- Rhizoctonia canker and black scurf
- Late blight
- Early blight
- White mold
- Pink rot
- Pythium leak
