A seven page color fact sheet on the Diagnosis and Management of Potato Storage Diseases is now available online from the University of Idaho (by N. Olsen, J. Miller and P. Nolte, University of Idaho, CIS1131). The diseases covered are those which NYS potato growers often find themselves dealing with: pink rot, Pythium leak, late blight, Fusarium dry rot, bacterial soft rot, silver scurf, black dot, and early blight. In addition to assisting with the proper identification of the diseases, there is information on sanitation of equipment and the storage, and recommendations on how to hold lots with some disease if you can't sell them immediately.
