Water availability plays critical role in sweet potato yield and quality, especially during the early stages of the development. Water shortage is frequent in places where sweet potato is grown, as the soils are commonly sandy and the temperature high. Amongst the possible solutions, developing a drought-tolerant cultivar is the most suitable and cost-effective economical approach. Identi…
Sweet potato is of outstanding socioeconomic importance. Although it is considered rustic, water deficiency affects the yield and quality of this vegetable. Sweet potato is widely cultivated in western São Paulo state, being the main producing region in the state. However, the cultivation of this vegetable in this region is characterized by the adoption of obsolete genotypes and the occur…
Sweet potato crop in Brazil has outstanding socioeconomic importance as it is the fourth most cultivated vegetable. In national territory, the state of São Paulo is the second largest producer of sweet potatoes and Western São Paulo has been a producing region and a national reference in the export of tuberous roots, even with soils with a predominance of sandy texture, a period of drough…
Although considered a rustic crop, the water deficit can reduce the yield and quality of sweet potato tuberous roots, especially in regions with predominance of sandy soils, high temperatures, and irregular rainfall distribution, as is the case of Western São Paulo. The development of water-deficit-tolerant sweet potato cultivars can be strategic. In this way, the objective is to quickly …
Sweet potato is socioeconomically relevant in Western São Paulo, a region characterized by the predominance of conditions that increase the water deficit, such as sandy soils, high temperatures, and the occurrence of Indian summer. Stress due to water deficiency is a factor that reduces yield and quality of sweet potato tuberous roots. As part of a breeding program aimed at drought tolera…
Water deficit can negatively affect the development, yield, and quality of sweet potato tuberous roots, especially if it occurs in the early stages of development. This is a common problem in the edaphoclimatic conditions of Western São Paulo, an important sweet potato producing region. Although the negative effect of water deficit on sweet potato is documented, there are few initiatives …
