A series of studies were conducted to better understand the occurrence and causes of internal necrosis (IN) in ‘Covington’ sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas). Assessment of the problem among the industry was done for 2 years and revealed that IN was widespread in commercial storage facilities throughout the state of North Carolina; both incidence and se...

Sweetpotato storage roots from the crop tolerance studies were also graded using a high-throughput optical grader (Exeter Engineering, Exeter, CA) to quantify herbicide effects on storage root shape. After grading, ten no. 1 roots per plot were randomly selected to test for internal necrosis (Jiang et al. 2015). Internal necrosis incidence was determined by cutting roots into approximately 3-mm slices beginning on the proximal end and ending halfway to the distal end and then making visual observations (Beam et al. 2017). ...
