The soil borne, obligate biotrophic fungus Synchytrium endobioticum causes tumor-like tissue proliferation (wart) in potato tubers and thereby considerable crop damage. Chemical control is not effective and unfriendly to the environment. S. endobioticum is therefore a quarantined pathogen. The emergence of new pathotypes of the fungus aggravate this agricultural problem.

Plectranthus edulis (Vatke) Agnew (locally known as Ethiopian dinich or Ethiopian potato) is one of the most economically important edible tuber crops indigenous to Ethiopia. Evaluating the extent of genetic diversity within and among populations is one of the first and most important steps in breeding and conservation measures.

After cereals, root and tuber crops are the main source of starch in the human diet. Starch biosynthesis was certainly a significant target for selection during the domestication of these crops. But domestication of these root and tubers crops is also associated with gigantism of storage organs and changes of habitat.

Storage tubers and root crops are important sustenance food crops grown throughout the world. Despite the availability of genome sequence for sweet potato, cassava, carrot and sugar beet, the molecular mechanism of root-derived storage organ development remains completely unexplored. Considering the pivotal role of PTBs and their target RNAs in potato storage organ development, we propose that a similar mechanism may be prevalent in storage root crops as well.

Black scurf disease on potato is causing an economically losses to the potato crops which causes both quantitative and qualitative damage occurs in potato production areas all over the world. The fungus limits the growth by forming cankers on sprouts, underground stems, and stolons, and makes tubers ugly by forming black scurf (sclerotia) on tuber surfaces.

Colocasia or taro (Colocasia esculanta L.) is one of the important tuber crops, which has been grown by farmers in rain-fed ecosystem and considered as an important food crop after rice in Nagaland. The characterization of taro from 11 districts of Nagaland, Northeast India has been analyzed using microsatellite markers. Twenty eight microsatellite markers were used to analyze 50 accessions of taro collected from 11 district of Nagaland.

Present study was conducted during the year 2015-16 in Bastar district of the Chhattisgarh state. Chhattisgarh state has 27 districts out of which Bastar district was selected for the study. Bastar division have 7 blocks out of which two blocks namely Bastar and Bakawand block was selected for the study. Tuber crops are growing in the limited area and wider gap between the current production and potential productivity.

An experiment was conducted with 32 cultivars of dahlia (Dahlia variabilis L.) to study correlation and path analysis among the yield attributing traits and their effect. Correlation among component characters showed that flower yield per plant had a highly significant positive genotypic correlation with leaf area index (0.617), crop duration (0.771), flowering duration (0.800), tuber weight (0.668) and change in fresh weight at day 3.

Potato is a cool weather crop, with temperature being the main limiting factor on production; however it grows under a diverse range of climatic conditions. The vegetative growth of the plant is best at a temperature of 24°C while tuber development is favoured at 18°C. Hence, potato is grown as a summer crop in the hills and as a winter crop in the tropical and subtropical regions.

Improving and maintaining soil quality for enhancing and sustaining agricultural production is of utmost importance for India’s food and nutritional security. Permanent Manurial Experiments (PMW) are ideal sites for studying management induced variability in crop production and soil health. The biological activity of a soil is the function of number of organisms present in soil and their physiological efficiency. Soil microbial diversity is one of the most important microbial parameters in soil.

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a perennial shrub and a tuberous root crop well adapted to poor soils and is relatively tolerant to drought, the crop is usually grown under marginal soil and climatic conditions and often with very limited inputs of fertilizers and pesticides. In India, cassava is cultivated in varied agro climatic and pedogenic environments. In Tamil Nadu, it is cultivated mainly for industrial uses, cassava is grown in black soils (Vertisols) and red soils (Alfisols).
