Languages : English (eng) Keywords: family, seedling tuber, true potato seed, tuber yield. Abstract: Seven hybrid true potato seed (TPS) families received from the International Potato Center,
Lima, Peru were evaluated and compared with HPS 11167 and HPS 7167 during 2001 to 2003
to see the performance of hybrid TPS families for seedling tuber p_roduction in di.fferellt agroecological
zones of Nepal. The families were tested in randomized complete block design
(RCBD) with four replications. Tuber yield produced by MF II x IPS 67 (5.12 kg/m2
) and
Atzimba x TPS 67 (3.15 kg!nl) at Khumaltar and Lumle, respectively were respectively
higher than other tested families. In Pakhribas, Surkhet and Taralu:;ra maximum tuber

), Serranax TPS 13 (2.24 kg!nl) and
HPS 11167 (6.20 kglm2

Khumaltar (496.47/nh Lumle (400.85/m2

Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Families, evaluation, late blight, seedling tuber, resistance. Abstract: The investigation entitled "Evaluation of true potato seed (FPS) families for seedling tuber
production in mid and far western terai of Nepal" was carried out at Regional Agriculture
Research Station Khajura. Nepalgunj during the winter season of 2066/67 and 2067/68. Studies
were performed taking eight genotypes ofTPSfamilies namely MF/1 x TPS67, HPS!l/67, HPS7/67,
TPS7 X TPS67, C98HT-200.14 X C99HT-2-58.1, C96H-02.4 X C99HT-1-58.1, C96H-4 X C99HT-
64.8, C96H-02.4 x C99HT-2-32.17. The families were tested in randomized complete block design
(RCBD) with 3 replications. Plot size was lm x lm. Nursery beds were raised to 15 em height with
the mixture of soil and farm yard manure at 1: I ratio. Fertilizers were applied@ /50:100:50 kglha
(NPK). The major objectives of the experiment was to identifY the suitable true potato seed (FPS)
families for seedling tuber production in nursery bed with good uniformity, color, shape, resistant
to disease and yield The tuber yield produced by HPS 11167 (2.614 kglm2
) and C98HT-
200.14xC99HT-2-58.1 (2.596 kglm1
) were obtained higher than other tested families. The maximum
plant uniformity was also recorded on HPSI/167. None of the tested families were found resistant to
late blight. On the basis of the results obtained it can be concluded that TPS family HPSI//67 and
C98HT-200.14 x C99HT-2-58. 1 of potato were suitable for seedling tuber production in mid and
far western terai of Nepal.

Title : Evaluation of True Potato Seed (Tps) Families for Seedling Tuber Production Under Jumla Condition Material Type: printed text Authors: R. K. Giri, Author ; Subedi, G.D., Author ; D. B. Kathayat, Author Pagination: 62-65 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: TPS, seedling tuber, vegetative and yield attributing characters. Abstract: On Station experiments were conducted at ARS (Horticulture), Rajikot, Jumla for two consecutive
years (2010/1 I and 201 1112) to identify TPS families for seedling tuber production under Jumla
condition. Eleven TPS families were evaluated in RCBD with 3 replications. The results showed no
significant difference among TPS families in vegetative characters during 2010111 whereas they
differed significantly on yield attributing characters. Number of tubers per plot was the highest
(243.33) in No. 903027 and the lowest (72) in No. 902007. Tuber yield per plot was the highest (3.43
kg) in No. 903027 whereas the lowest (1.22 kg) in No. 988143. All the vegetative characters except
plant height and yield attributing characters were highly significant during 2011/12. The highest
emergence (100 %) was observed in No. 904013, 994014 and 988141 whereas the lowest (47.33%) in
No. 902007. Ground coverage was the highest (98.33%) in 903035, 994013 and 994014 whereas the
lowest (64.33%) in 902007. Number of main stem was observed the highest (3.33) in No. 902007
whereas the lowest {2) in 903027, 903051 and 903135. The highest number of tubers per plot (231.67)
was produced by No. 994014 whereas the lowest by 902007 (87.33). The highest tuber yield per plot
(4.67 kg) was observed in No. 994013 whereas the lowest (1.85 kg) in 902007. The result showed that
the highest tuber yield (3.25 kg/plot) was obtained/rom 994013followed by 903051 (3.24 kg/plot) and
903027 (3.15 kg/plot). Thus, yield potentiality of TPS progenies No. 994013, 903051 and 903027
should further be verified under farmer's field condition in order to draw conclusive results.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=1569 Evaluation of True Potato Seed (Tps) Families for Seedling Tuber Production Under Jumla Condition [printed text] / R.

Research Program, Khumaltar, Agriculture Research Station Belachapi and Agriculture ·
Research Station Malepatan during 2005 and 2006 to see their performance. The
families were tested . in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three

Title : Performance of Different Size True Potato Seed Seedling Tubers at Khumaltar Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikari, R.C., Author Publication Date: 2005 Article on page: 28-34 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Desiree, seedling tuber, tuber size, yield Abstract: A field study was carried out at Khumaltar-Lalitpur, during 2002-2004 to evaluate and compare
the performance of different sizes of seedling tubers (1-5 g, 5-10 g, 10-20 g and 20-40 g) of true
potato seed (TPS) with whole and half cut seed tubers of Desiree of 20-40 g size at 60- 25-cm
spacing. Percent emergence, plant height, ground cover by foliage, stems/plant, number of tubers
per plant, marketable and total yields were significantly increased with the increase in seedling
tubers weight as compared to whole and half cut seed tubers of Desiree. Late blight
(Phytophthora infestans L.) disease was quite low in the TPS crops than Desiree. Both whole
and half cut seed tubers of Desiree produced significantly higher average per tuber weight.
Uniformity of the tubers harvested from different sizes of seedling tubers was statistically
similar and tubers from Desiree were statistically uniform as compared to seedling tubers. The
three years result suggests that more than 1 g size seedling tubers can be successfully used for
potato production as from the seed tubers of any standard variety.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=58
