    Survey of potato early dying disease complex in Alberta's commercial potato fields, 2021-2022
    (Taylor & Francis, 2023) Rahman, A. U.; Munawar, M.; Konschuh, Michele; Tenuta, M.; Harding, M. W.; Yevtushenko, Dmytro P.
    Potato fields were evaluated for inci dence and severity of early dying disease complex in the growing seasons of 2021 and 2022. Disease sure varied among the fields in both years. Fields taining higher inoculum levels of Verticillium dahliae in the fall soil samples as determined by qPCR of soil samples typically showed more potato early dying (PED) symptom development in the subsequent ing season. The incidence of PED was higher in 2022 than in 2021. Results demonstrated the potential of qPCR evaluation of representative soil samples as an aid for risk prediction activities in potato production systems dealing with PED.
