Abstract

Four TPS hybrids were evaluated for seedling tuber production and commercial crop production through seedling tubers in subsequent generation (F1C1) at Central Potato Research Station, Shillong, during 2001–2002. TPS family HPS-7/67 gave significantly higher seedling tuber yield per hectare than TPS family TPS C-3 used as control. However, TPS C-3 was found to be the best for raising commercial crop through seedling tubers.
