Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The turgidity of potato tubers and other root vegetables is improved, maintained, or restored and/or the greening of potato tubers is delayed, prevented or inhibited and/or internal diseases caused by fungi and bacteria are prevented or treated by the application of one or more α,β-unsaturated aliphatic aldehydes and ketones, C3 to C14 aliphatic aldehydes and ketones, and/or C3 to C7 saturated or unsaturated primary and secondary aliphatic alcohols.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
We claim: 1. A method of reversing symptoms of a fungal or bacterial disease within potato tubers, comprising the step of applying to harvested or stored potato tubers, a composition consisting of 3-decen-2-one in an amount that is sufficient to reverse symptoms of said fungal or bacterial disease within the potato tubers, wherein said fungal or bacterial or disease is Fusarium dry rot. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein said step of applying is performed by fogging or vaporizing. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said harvested or stored potato tubers exhibit symptoms of one or more fungal or bacterial diseases prior to said step of applying.
