Determination Geographical Origin of Potato Tuber based on Elements Composition

Potato is one of the major food crops grown in a wide variety of soils and climatic conditions. Many research were conducted to improve the quality of potatoes through different types and rates of fertilization. These research used different cultivars and different growth locations which affected the quality of potato tuber.

There is growing interest in research related to identification of the geographic origin of commercial articles, including a wide range of agricultural food products. It is recognized that the element compositions of agriculture products are distorted reflection of the element compositions in the soil and environment in which the plant grows. Moreover, macro and micro elements, which are needed by potato plant, might have correlation with the quality parameters of potato tuber. Therefore, it is interesting to determine the geographical origin of potato tuber based on elements composition and to find out the correlation between elements in potato tuber, and moreover, the correlation between elements and the quality parameters of potato tuber.

Objectives
  • To profile the elements composition of several cultivars of potato tuber from several different growth locations
  • To study the relationship between elements composition and quality parameters of several cultivars of potato tuber
  • To determine the geographical origin of potato tuber based on its macro and micro elements
