Abstract

Donna is a smooth, yellow-skinned, yellow-fleshed potato cultivar of Kennebec maturity. It has significant levels of resistance to Verticillium wilt, PVX, PVY and to the North American pathotype of the potato cyst nematode. Adaptation trials conducted in several countries indicate Donna may have potential in the export seed market.
