The three main groups of cultivated potatoes were studied (diploids (2n ----24), Andigena (2n = 48) and Tuberosum (2n ~ 48)). Seed weights were measured as mg per 100 seeds. In the tetraploids, but not in the diploids, there is a regression of seed weight on seed number per berry with b --~ -7 mg pe

A method for screening populations of potato genotypes for sensitivity to metribuzin has been developed. Plants grown from both tubers and true seed were screened in the greenhouse by growing them in a metribuzin-containing nutrient solution. Sensitivity to metribuzin was found to be determined by a
A recently developed polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis technique for tuber proteins is used to help elucidate the evolution and taxonomy of some cultivated potatoes. The results substantiate the theory that Group Tuberosum evolved from Group Andigena, that Group Andigena evolved from a cultivated d
