Abstract
  • This paper presents a review of existing literature concerning sprout suppression in stored potato. Currently available synthetic chemical suppressants are discussed and compared to alternative suppressants such as essential oils. Literature examining the efficacy of various commercially available essential oil products on potato sprout suppression are reviewed, and other essential oils of interest are proposed for use in fresh, processing, and seed potato storage. Challenges and limitations of essential oil use in potato sprout suppression are discussed as well as areas of future research.
