Abstract

To evaluate the influence of oligosaccharides
in the growth and development of potato plants,
two experiments for two years were conducted, one of then
consisted in foliar application of Pectimorf
at 20, 25 and
30 days after planting. In these case plants were growing in
containers of six liter to meet the potential of Pectimorf
®
in
the possible stolon emission induction, whereas under field
conditions, were applieding foliar way two concentrations of
Quitomax
in two stages of the crop cycle: 30 and 50 days
after planting. In all cases, the imported seeds of Roman
variety to planting were used. In the first experiment,
the evaluation was ten days after the last application,
in the second the evaluation was conducted at harvest,
for which the mass of the tubers to the yield and the number
of them was determined by size, and the total. The results
showed little influence in terms Pectimorf® induction
runners, although a greater number of tubers when compared
with plants had not been treated. Quitomax® concentrations
allowed the plants reached a greater development, which led to a higher yield compared to the untreated control.
