.
14 000 ha -> 350 000 tons = 25 t/ha (10 – 70 t/ha)
3000 growers, 1 – 80 ha of potatoes per grower
Silver scurf Helminthosporium solani
Silver scurf
• Potato is the only known host plant
• Survives as a saprophyte in soil, and multiplies
on senescent plants of many species
• Tubes can become infected in the growing
season, at harvest or during storage
• Needs humid conditions to infect, the infection
speed increases with temperature
• Under optimal conditions the fungus needs
9 hours to penetrate into the cells
Silver scurf
• Infected cells die, loose their pigments and
become filled with air –> silvery lesions
• Increased the water loss in infected tissue ->
shrinking
• Inoculum sources: Seed tubers (and soil)
• PCR results from 2008 - 2009: a lot of
inoculum in seed tubers and low levels in
soil
Control measures – Silver scurf
• Crop rotation + avoid cereals as the last crop before
potatoes
• Shorter growing seasons (presprout seed tubers)+
shorten the period between haulm killing and harvest
• Suppressive soils
• Low plant density
• Dry curing
• Cold storage and no condense
• Seed treatment: Fungazil (imazalil), Maxim
(fludioxonil), Emesto (penflufen), Emesto silver
(penflufen + protioconazol), Serenade (Basillus subtilis)
• In furrow fungicide application: Amistar (azoxystrobin)
Black scurf
Rhizoctonia solani
Sclerotia and
hypha
Black scurf Rhizoctonia solani
(Thanatephorus cucumeris)
• Sunken dark brown lesions on
sprouts, stems, stolons and roots
• Infections in stolons early in the
season -> tuber abortion, new
tubers is developed higher up ->
more small tubers and more green
tubers
Control measures – Black scurf
• Crop rotation, several years without potatoes
• Suppressive soils
• Shorter growing seasons + shorten the period between
haulm killing and harvest -> less sclerotia on tubers
• Dry curing
• Cold storage and no condense
• Seed treatment: Rizolex (tolclofosmethyl), Monceren
(pencycuron), Maxim (fludioxonil), Emesto
(penflufen), Emesto silver (penflufen + protioconazol)

Occurrence of skin blemish diseases in Norway
after 4 - 6 month of storage, 247 potato lots: Nærstad R, Dees MW, Le VH, Holgado R, Hermansen A
• Silver scurf (Helminthosporium solani) 11-13% (100%)
• Black dot (Colletotrichum coccodes) (80%)
• Common scab (Streptomyces spp.) 6-7% (50-70%)
• Powdery scab (Spongospora subterranean) 0.7-2% (70%)
• Skin spot (Polyscytalum pustulans) 0.2-1.7% (80%)

Root lesion nematodes
Paratylenchchus spp. in
60% of scabby lesions

Sampling
• 40 locations each year in 2009 and 2010 + questionaries
• From each location:
– Samples of soil and seed tubers at planting
– Samples of soil in August
– Samples of progeny tubers at harvest
• Assessed for the presence of pathogens by real-time PCR
• Tubers were also assed for the presence of pathogens by plug tests
• Pathogens:
• Black dot (Colletotrichum coccodes)
• Skin spot (Polyscytalum pustulans)
• Common scab (Streptomyces spp.)
• Silver scurf (Helminthosporium solani)

• SCRI protocols:
• Common scab (Cullen and Lees, 2007)
• Powdery scab (van de Graaf et al., 2003)
• Silver scurf (Cullen et al., 2001)
• Black scurf (Lees et al., 2002)
• Black dot (Cullen et al. 2002)
• Fungal pathogens based on ITS regions
• Streptomyces based on nec gene
18S gen 5.8S gen 26S gen
ITS Ribosomale RNA gener:
DNA-analysis
• Soil samples (SCRI protocol)
• Tuber samples

Conclusion from quantitative PCR
diagnostics of soil and tubers
• Skin spot, powdery scab and black dot:
disease increased with inoculums on the seed
tubers.
• For black dot and powdery scab it also
increased with soil inoculums
• Common scab, silver surf and black scurf:
other factors than inoculums level were more
important for disease incidence in the progeny
tubers
Harvest, curing and storage strategies
3 trials
• 0, 11 and 22 days from haulm killing to
harvest
• 4 harvest dates
• Curing: 70% RH and 90% RH
• Storage: Directly to 4oC and slowly to 4oC

• All treatments reduced the
amount of R. solani sclerotia
and hypha on the progeny
tubers
• Amistar and Emesto also
reduced the frequency of
silver scurf latent infections
(plug test)
• In 2008 and 2010 there were
attack of black dot at one
location and in these trials
there were less black dot in
the Amistar treatment.

Fusarium dry rot
• Important disease of potato affecting tubers in
storage
• Caused by several fungal species in the genus
Fusarium
• Fusarium dry rot of seed tubers can reduce crop
establishment by killing developing potato sprouts
• Crop losses can be up to 25%
Symptoms
• Originate in wounds created by mechanical damages or
desprouting during handling
• Surface lesions appears as dark depressions and wrinkled
areas of skin
• Concentric rings can be observed in case of heavy infection
• Fusarium dry rot can be recognized based on white, pink or
orange colored mycelium proliferation on the tuber surface

Fusarium dry rot in Norway
P.H. Jensen, M.B. Brurberg & A. Hermansen • Main goal: Find out which
Fusarium spp. currently causes
dry rot problems in Norway
• How: Potato samples collected
from different regions in Norway
over 3 seasons (2010-2013)
– artificial wounding +
incubation
– isolation
Photo: P. H. Jensen
Results from the growing season 2010 -2011
5 % of the tubers developed rots
Fusarium
Boeremia (Phoma)
Penicillium
Mucor
Cylindrocarbon
49 % of rots were caused by Fusarium
–F. coeruleum (64%)
–F. avenaceum (31%)
–F. culmorum (4%)
–F. cerealis (1%)
–F. sambucinum (1%)

Goal
• Develop multiplex real time PCR for
Norwegian dry rots caused by Fusarium
