Symptoms: When potato chips are infected by a pathogen, the potato pieces become soft and start to rot. A layer of gray-white mold appears on the bed soil, and the soil surface may appear slightly sunken. This condition is primarily caused by cold injury or physical damage to the potato tubers during storage or the seedling stage. The bacteria thrive in temperatures between 15°C and 23°C, and they tend to infect damaged potato tissues more easily. Once inside, the tubers continue to rot, especially at lower temperatures. Control Methods: It is crucial to carefully select healthy potato seedlings and avoid using those that have been exposed to cold conditions. If the seedlings show signs of cold damage, the bed temperature should not be raised too high before emergence; instead, it should be kept around 28°C to help the tubers recover and suppress pathogen growth. As soon as the disease is detected, all infected potatoes and contaminated soil must be removed immediately. Then, new, disease-free seedlings should be planted in clean, fresh soil to prevent further spread of the infection. Regular monitoring and proper sanitation practices are also essential in maintaining healthy potato crops.
