Effects of Climatic Conditions and Agronomic Practices on Health, Tuber Yield, and Mineral Composition of Two Contrasting Potato Varieties Developed for High and Low Input Producti... by Gultekin Hasanaliyeva, Ourania Giannakopoulou, Juan Wang, Marcin Barański, Enas Khalid Sufar, Daryl Knutt, Jenny Gilroy, Peter Shotton, Halima Leifert, Dominika Średnicka-Tober, Ismail Cakmak, Levent Ozturk, Bingqiang Zhao, Per Ole Iversen, Nikolaos Volakakis, Paul Bilsborrow, Carlo Leifert, Leonidas Rempelos

“…Modern potato varieties from high-input, conventional farming-focused breeding programs produce substantially (up to 45%) lower yields when grown in organic production systems, and this was shown to be primarily due to less efficient fertilization and late blight (<i>Phytophthora infestans</i>) control methods being used in organic farming. It has been hypothesized that the breeding of potato varieties suitable for the organic/low-input sector should (i) focus on increasing nutrient (especially N) use efficiency, (ii) introduce durable late blight resistance, and (iii) be based on selection under low-input conditions. …”
