Iron (Fe) deficiency is a prevalent nutritional concern that affects a significant portion of the global population, particularly children and pregnant women. One potential solution to address these deficiencies is microbial biofortification, which involves the intentional augmentation of beneficial nutrients within agricultural plants. Plant growth–promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) can enhance the Fe content in the edible parts of plants through various direct and indirect methods. This study aimed to assess the combined impact of two bacterial isolates, both individually and in conjunction with L-tryptophan and iron sulphate, on the growth, physiology, tuber characteristics, and Fe content of potatoes (<i>Solanum tuberosum </i>L<i>.</i>). The findings indicated that the application of PGPR and plant growth regulators (PGR) significantly enhanced plant height, haulm yield, and the number of tubers per plant. Fe content was notably increased by the sole application of L-tryptophan (24.58%) and bacterial strains (Z-20 increased by 17.54% and Z-37 by 31.05%). Furthermore, the introduction of the microbial consortia and L-tryptophan resulted in a remarkable enhancement, with up to a two-fold increase in the Fe concentration of potatoes compared to the control. Additionally, nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) concentrations also increased significantly. The results indicate that the presence of rhizobacteria can facilitate nutrient absorption by plants from the soil. This study demonstrates that the combined use of microbial-assisted biofortification and PGR is a promising, economically viable strategy for addressing micronutrient deficiencies, especially in resource-limited countries.</p>","PeriodicalId":20378,"journal":{"name":"Potato Research","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142175693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, various hyperparameter optimization techniques such as grid search, random search, genetic algorithms, and Bayesian optimization are examined, and their impact on model performance is assessed. Challenges including dataset scarcity, variability in disease symptoms, and the generalization of models across diverse environmental conditions are addressed in the discussion section. Opportunities for advancing CNN-based disease detection, including the integration of multi-spectral imaging and remote sensing data, and the implementation of federated learning for collaborative model training, are explored. Future directions propose research into robust transfer learning techniques and the deployment of CNNs in real-time monitoring systems for proactive disease management in potato agriculture.

The field trial spanned two seasons (2017/2018 and 2018/2019) at the same location in Southern Chile. Foliar damage percentage caused by natural infection was measured, and the relative area under the disease progress curve (rAUDPC) was calculated.

The results indicated that seven genotypes, Azul (0.10), SN-1 (0.10), Chilca-1 (0.11), Azul Casposa (0.07), Corahila Reina (0.16), Piku (0.17) and Murta (0.24), exhibited partial resistance with significantly lower rAUDPC values than the control cultivar across both seasons. Moreover, the detached leaflets assay in 2019 highlighted four genotypes with substantially lower damage percentages: Azul Casposa (0.11%), Chilca-1 (0.64%), Piku (1.11%) and SN-1 (3.16%).

Nevertheless, excessive CGA can impact the taste of potatoes. The application of exogenous phytohormones is an effective technical approach to regulate CGA metabolism through gene expression of transcriptional regulatory pathways. Herein, we determined the content of CGA under the application of sucrose and multiple phytohormones and explored the expression changes of related genes. As a proof-of-concept, the effects of exogenous sucrose and multiple phytohormones on CGA metabolism in potato tuber flesh were investigated. The CGA content was significantly decreased in sucrose-treated potato tuber tissues, as well as in those treated with abscisic acid (ABA), salicylic acid (SA), and methyl jasmonate (MeJA). Among these treatments, the effect of SA was the most obvious. Meanwhile, the expression changes of six major enzyme genes involved in potato CGA metabolism, including phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), 4-coumarate coenzyme A ligase (4CL), hydroxycinnamoyl CoA quinate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HQT), hydroxycinnamoyl CoA shikimate/quinate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT), ρ-coumarate 3’-hydroxilase (C3H), and caffeoyl shikimate esterase (CSE), were analyzed. Under sucrose treatment, <i>HQT</i> was down-regulated, whereas three genes (<i>PAL</i>, <i>4CL</i>, and <i>CSE</i>) were notably up-regulated, and expressions of <i>HCT</i> and <i>C3H</i> did not show significant changes.

Potato is the main cash crop of the region affected by climate change. However, impact assessment of climate change for the potato-potato cropping system has not been studied yet. Hence, in the present study, we studied the impact of projected climate change and key adaptation options on the potato-potato cropping system using the DSSAT-CSM-SUBSTOR-Potato model. The model was calibrated using 2019 spring and fall season field experiments data, while evaluation was made using spring and fall season data of 2019 and 2020 respectively. After calibration and evaluation, model sensitivity analysis for carbon, temperature, water and nitrogen (CTWN) was performed, and after that, it was applied to determine the impact of climate warming and change in rainfall on spring and fall potato during mid-century. The results revealed that during the baseline period (1980–2020), maximum (Tmax) and minimum (Tmin) air temperature were increased by 0.7 and 0.8 °C during the spring growing season and by 0.8 and 0.9 °C during the autumn growing season, respectively. Furthermore, it was projected that autumn potato will be more influenced due to climate change than spring potato. Under future projections, temperature change for spring planted potato will be 2.7 to 3.8 °C for Tmin and 2.1 to 3.4 °C for Tmax. However for the autumn seasons, potato increase in maximum temperature will be from 2.4 to 3.6 °C and for minimum temperature the change will be from 2.7 to 4.0 °C. Simulation outcome showed that without adaptation strategies, tuber yield will be reduced from 23 to 29% and from 19 to 36% in spring and fall potato, respectively. While with adopting suitable adaptation strategies such as fertigation, planting date adjustment (earlier planting of spring potato by 15 days and delayed planting of fall by 20 days), higher thermal time requiring cultivars, increase of 12% in plant population and nitrogen quantity, tuber yield can be increased by 9 to 13% during spring and by 10 to 14% during autumn potato during mid-century.
