Identification of volatile biomarkers for high-throughput sensing of soft rot and Pythium leak diseases in stored potatoes

•Volatile profiles of two potato varieties resulting from two rot pathogens were evaluated.•Soft rot and Pythium leak-based volatile compounds were assessed using GC techniques.•Biomarkers identified included n,n–dimethylmethylamine, 1–undecene, acetone, and styrene. Soft rot and Pythium leak are po...
