Abstract

Our research goal is to determine whether plant oil-based adjuvants alone could be used for seed potato crop protection against virus infections. In this study the phytotoxicity effect of three adjuvants (Dedal 90 EC, Olejan 85 EC and Superam 10 Al.) on potato plants was tested in the year 2004 in greenhouse experiments. The mineral oil — Sunspray 850 EC was used as a control. In the vegetative period (VI–IX) 10 applications of the mixture of oil with water, at various concentrations (1%, 3% and 5%), were performed in the 7 days intervals. The effect of the adjuvants on phytotoxicity response was evaluated 3 days after every application. Our preliminary data showed that there were no symptoms (including chlorosis and wilting) on potato plants after application of 1% concentrated adjuvants. However, at higher concentrations induction of phytotoxic response occurred and lowered tuber yield by 25%–45% (depending on the adjuvant used).
