The study of 29 genotypes showed favourable response to selection for plant type, dormancy period, average tuber weight, number of tubers and plant vigour based on high heritability estimates, High genetic advance for tuber yield, average tuber weight, plant height and number of leaves suggests scope of improvement for these traits. An association between different characters revealed that vigorous, erect and tall genotypes with long and wider leaves, producing more number of tubers/average tuber weight, having shallow/medium eyes and oval/round regular shape etc. are to be considered for improvement in potato.
