Abstract

In the years 2014-2016 at the Plant Breeding and Acclimatization Institute in Jadwisin, an experiment was carried out to assess the impact of various ranges of chemical protection on the infestation of potato plants by Phytophthora infestans and Alternaria and the amount of tuber yield. Varieties of different earliness and resistance to late blight were tested. The following fungicide protection scopes were compared: control (without protection), limited protection (1-3 treatments) and intensive protection (4-5 treatments). The influence of years, protection ranges and varieties on the development of fungal diseases and the amount of tuber yield was proved. On average, for the years of research, the lowest degree of plant infestation with Alternaria and the slowest rate of the spread of late blight and the highest tuber yield was recorded for intensive protection. The average increase in yields caused by the application of fungicides was 19%. The highest average yield increase - 21.3% was achieved between control and intensive protection. A significant differentiation between intensive and limited protection in terms of disease development and yield was dependent on pathogen pressure in the year of the study.
