Gynoecial placentation of Solanum tuberosum L. is axile with each parenchymatous placenta covered with numerous ovules. Three days after pollination, mitotic activity in the placental surface and subjacent layers initiates tissue proliferations, which develop between the ovules. Continued cell division and subsequent cell enlargement result in expanded placental projections, which separate the developing seeds from one another and form an interface with the inner pericarp within 10 – 12 days after pollination. Eventually, the placenta fills the remaining ovarian locular space and embeds the seeds.

Shoots of the early-maturing potato (Solatium tuberosum L.) cultivar Jemseg often do not emerge uniformly when cut seed pieces are planted in cold soil. Under controlled temperatures of 10, 15 and 20 °C, shoots from whole tubers and basal portions of Jemseg tubers emerged later than those from apical portions of seed tubers. The delayed emergence of the basal portion was most pronounced at low temperatures and ranged from 5 to 17 d. Emergence from basal vs. apical portions of Conestoga was delayed by 10 d at 10 °C and by 4 d at 15 °C, only when seed tubers with a single dominant apical sprout were used. There was no delay at 20 °C. The variable time to emergence of shoots in the field can be explained by delayed emergence from basal buds on cut seed pieces.Key words: Potato, cultivars, emergence, bud position, temperature, seed tuber

SummarySix field experiments, three each during 1982–3 and 1983–4, were conducted on a sandy loam soil to study the effect of varying levels of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, in the absence and presence of farmyard manure (FYM) (30 t/ha), on the number of tubers and yield of potato in three grades. Increase in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium application, in the absence or presence of FYM, did not significantly affect the total number of tubers/m2 but did affect the number of tubers in different grades. An increase in nitrogen and potassium significantly decreased the number of tubers/m2 in small (< 25 g) and increased in medium (25–75 g) and large (> 75 g) grades at 45, 60, 75 and 90 days after planting. Increase in the application of phosphorus increased the number of tubers/m2 in the small grade and decreased it in the large grade but did not affect the number in the medium grade. Increase in nitrogen and potassium application decreased the tuber yield in the small grade and increased it in the medium and large grades. Applied phosphorus increased the yield in the small and medium grades and decreased it in the large grade. The increase in the yield of tubers with increase in nitrogen and potassium application was found to be caused by an increase in the number of tubers in the medium and large grades at the expense of the small grade; however, with applied phosphorus the increase in yield was due to increase in the weight of individual tubers within the small and medium grades. FYM application decreased the number of tubers in the small grade and increased it in the medium and large grades. The response of potato to nitrogen increased and to phosphorus and potassium decreased with the application of FYM.

The soluble tuber proteins of potato (Solatium tuberosum) may be separated by electrophoresis on the basis of charge or molecular weight (Stegemann & Schnick, 1982; Maier & Wagner, 1981: Park et al. 1983). Considerable cultivar specific variation exists in the band patterns of these proteins and separation of native proteins in 6% polyacrylamide gels at pH 7·9 has been used as the basis of characterizing cultivars for the Index of European Potato Varieties (Stegemann & Schnick, 1982).
