NEA303. The performance of the 4x hybrids obtained from 4x × 2x cross was investigated for yield and yield components in the first year clonal generation. The 4x hybrids shown a drastic heterosis in plant height. Marketable yield/plant for the 4x hybrid was no better than that for the 4x cultivar, but the best hybrid individual of the two hybrid populations exceeded the best individual of the cultivar by 260 g/plant and 60 g/plant, respectively. Total yield/plant for the 4x hybrids performed drastic heterosis, however tuber number/plant was high and mean tuber weight low. These limit the use of 4x × 2x hybrids in potato breeding programs and need to be improved in near future.展开更多
