  • Clonal variation in Russet Norkotah and Umatilla Russet potato varieties

    Creator:
    Brunick, Robert L.
    Abstract:
    These studies compared giant hill strains of Russet Norkotah and Umatilla Russet to the parent varieties. Selections were initially based on late maturity and increased vine vigor. Subsequent evaluations emphasized yield and quality parameters in comparison to the parent varieties. Giant hills were collected from the Columbia Basin and Central...

  • Marker-assisted selection for resistance to potato virus Y

    Creator:
    Ottoman, Ryon J.
    Abstract:
    Potato Virus Y (PVY) imposes serious limitations on potato yield, quality and tuber seed production. Traditional PVY screening requires artificial inoculation under controlled conditions followed by ELISA to test for PVY. This method is very tedious and time consuming thus prohibiting the screening of large segregating populations. The genes RYadg...
