Abstract

Potato Purple Top (PPT), associated with Candidatus Phytoplasma spp. and Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum, represents a major constraint on potato productivity in high-Andean regions. The present study evaluated the agronomic response of a set of tetraploid potato genotypes under natural disease pressure conditions, with the objective of identifying materials with reduced symptom progression and favorable yield performance. An augmented block design was used, including commercial checks, and productive traits were analyzed by commercial grade categories, vegetative vigor, and the area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC). Analysis of variance revealed significant differences among treatments only for AUDPC, whereas yield components and vegetative vigor did not show statistically significant differences. However, several genotypes combined relatively low AUDPC values with high yields of first-grade tubers, particularly Guata 07, Guata 15, Guata 23, Guata 55, and Guata 77. The results demonstrate substantial variability in genotype responses to the PPT complex and allowed the identification of promising materials for further multi-environment evaluations aimed at confirming the stability of their agronomic performance and disease response.
