Rhizoctonia canker, caused by the fungus Rhizoctonia solani, is a fairly common problem on potato production in Kansas. The disease may occur as a surface blemish on the tubers or more seriously as a disease on new sprouts from seed pieces. Affected tubers may be pitted or cracked, but commonly they only show flat irregular lumps or specks (similar to small clumps of soil) on the skin which will not wash off. 3, record 2, English, - black%20scurf
