A Dry Rot Of The Irish Potato Tuber, E. Mead Wilcox, George K.K. Link, Venus W. Pool

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

The first specimens of the dry rot herein described were received by the department of Agricultural Botany during the winter of 1907-1908 from western Nebraska. A preliminary survey of the situation showed clearly the importance of this new rot, and an exhaustive investigation of the disease was outlined and has been continued to the present time. The present publication gives the results secured to date in our investigation of this disease.
