Abstract

Percentage survival and average tuber yield (t/ha) of all TPS (true potato seed) progenies was recorded almost similar to the standard local cultivar Kufri Jyoti. Hybrid HPS-II/3 produced the maximum number of extra large size tubers and was also the highest yielder. Tubers of HPS-II/3 and HPS-7/30 were most uniform in shape, size and colour.
