Abstract

Attempts are being made to breed a variety which can replace the potato variety Bintje and is resistant to wart disease as well as sufficiently resistant to Phytophthora. In order to realize this both Solanum demissum and selection in autumn growing were used. Crosses of seedlings which possessed "Bintje blood" are performed to preserve the quality of Bintje.

Samenvatting

Systematisch kruisings- en selectieprogramma om Phytophthora resistentie met Bintje-kwaliteit en cultuurwaarde in een aardappelras te combineren. Getracht wordt een Bintje vervanger te vinden, welke onvatbaar is voor wratziekte en voldoende resistent van een selectie in najaarsteelt, terwijl door systematisch kruisen van zaailingen waartin Bintje bloed aanwezig is, wordt gestreefd naar het behoud van de Bintje kwaliteit.
