Abstract: |
Demand of high yielding potato varieties with major diseases and pest resistance has been tremendously increasing day by day in Nepal. With the objective of fulfilling this demand. a series of on-station and on-farm studies as Initial Evaluation Trials, Coordinated Varietal Trials and Coordinated Farmers' Field Trials were are continuously undertaken by National Potato Research Programme (NPRP) after its establishment (1991). Results from several on-station and on-farm trials conducted during the years of 2004/05 to 2009/010 demonstrated that clones L 235-4 and C/P 389746.2 are superior to check varieties tested for their growth, yield characteristics and farmers' preferences including better resistance level to late blight disease. Therefore, based on their overall performance, clone L 235-4 has been proposed to release as the variety for commercial cultivation/or the hills and clone C/P 389746.2/or terai ofNepal, respectively. |
