Abstract

The aim of the investigations carried out in the years 1985–2002 on 46 potato cultivars differing in earliness was to assess the length of dormancy period and readiness for sprouting of tubers stored at 2°, 6°, 8° and 10°C and 90% RH in darkness. Minimum temperature of sprouting was determined. Moreover, the dynamics of sprout development was examined. Marked differences between the cultivars both in the length of a dormancy period and intensity of sprouts development in tubers stored under the same conditions were found. However, neither the duration of tuber dormancy nor sprouting dynamics was closely related to cultivar earliness.
