Abstract
The aim of the experiment was to determine the beginning and rate of sprouting of potato tubers stored at 3°C, 5°C and 8°C. Moreover, the effects of main weather factors during the vegetation period on the date of beginning of tuber sprouting were assessed. Losses in mass of tubers caused by tuber sprouting depended on the temperature during storage and potato cultivar. Tubers stored at 8°C started sprouting in the period between 2nd decade of December (cvs Roxana and Niagara) and 2nd decade of February. A length of sprouts produced by tubers during storage depended on the cultivar and ranged from 23 mm (Marlen) to 93 mm (Niagara). The tubers stored at 5°C and 3°C, compared to those stored at 8°C, started sprouting approximately 4 wks and 12 wks later, respectively. The influence of weather conditions during the vegetation of potatoes on the beginning of tuber sprouting during storage was observed.
