Abstract

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is an important tuber crop that has vital role in the future food security of the world. It possesses different cytoplasmic (Cp) types which directly influence many important agronomic traits. Indian cultivars were screened for the Cp diversity and related traits like late blight resistance, total starch content and male sterility. Only T (83.63%) and D (16.36%) Cp type prevailed, while other types were totally absent. D Cp type was introduced for late blight resistance and was found to be related to high total starch content and better processing attributes. The effect of Cp type and various R genes on imparting resistance to late blight was found to act independent to each other. In a crop like potato, where breeders are challenged by tetrasomic inheritance and vegetative propagation, organelle studies are expected to provide a better picture of available diversity which can better be utilized in designing the breeding programs.
