Effects of topping, stem density, and stage of vine cutting on canopy growth and tuber yield yield of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.)
Seed tubers of ‘Yukon Gold’ potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) exhibit strong apical dominance, resulting in low stem density after planting. After emergence, the terminal buds reimpose apical dominance on the rest of the canopy leading to production of few secondary branches. Therefore, several experime...
