potatoes, plant growth regulators, seed production, viruses, desiccationAbstract
The article presents results on the influence of plant growth regulators (Raykat, Radipharm), a preparation with fungicidal and antiviral properties (Farmayod), and desiccation on viral infection in seed potatoes ‘Zhytnytsia’ in the Ukrainian Forest-Steppe. It was found that the removal of potato haulms on day 15 after anthesis, in combination with growth-stimulating preparations, minimizes the reinfection of tubers with viruses.
