Transcript of Oral talk in 'PAA Annual Meeting 2012'
Resistance of potato genotypes to drought stress
Pankaj Banik, M.Sc. Student
University of Saskatchewan, Canada
Drought stress in potato plants
• Sensitive to drought
– Even a short period of time
• Tuber quality & production
• Stolon formation & tuberization
– Most sensitive stage
• Longer period in tuber formation
• Decrease in tuber number, growth & yield
Greenhouse Low RH room
(22/20°C, 17-25% RH, 250 µmol/m2/sec)

Measurements
• Leaf WC
• Stomatal aperture
• Water Use Efficiency
• Leaf water loss over 15 minutes
• Leaf temperature
• Leaflet water content
• Flowering time
• Stem diameter and plant height
• Biomass
• Trichome Number
• Leaf cuticle layer
• Yield
Hypotheses
• Drought stress history of genotypes affects
subsequent drought stress resistance [V1002-2]
• Drought acclimation and recovery are key
components of resistance
[Fv12246-6, V1002-2 & Russet Burbank (RB)]
• Stomatal aperture parameters are associated with
yield under drought stress conditions

Recovery Stage:

• Drought acclimation and recovery are key

HOWEVER, rate of water loss was affected.
Non-Acclimated (NA) treatments had highest rate of % leaf water loss.
Overall, V1002 lost water at a significantly higher rate than Fv12 & RB.

Summary
• Previous stress history • Induced more tubers in the 5 – 50 g size classes.
• Drought Acclimation
» Increased Leaf Water Content (LWC) under max. stress
» Reduced rate of % leaf water loss
» Difference in leaf cuticle layer
• No previous history • Drought Acclimation
Did not increase LWC
Did reduce rate of % leaf water loss
Had most significant effect on RB shoot responses
Next Experiments
• Stomatal aperture evaluation on NA, DAS
and NAS in drought history and no previous
drought stress history experiments.
• Water Use Efficiency, non-destructive Water
Potential measurements
• Specific response measurement in all six
genotypes received from Dr. Bizimungu.
