Integrated Control of Major Fungal Diseases in Potatoes

Potato crops are susceptible to various fungal diseases, both in the field and during storage. While symptoms may become visible on tubers after harvesting, the infection typically originates in the field. If infected tubers are used for planting, these diseases can carry over to the next growing season, leading to further crop damage.
