Abstract

Mating systems are a prerequisite to characterize potato varieties that are used in breeding programs, seed production programs, as well as to generate, validate, apply and transfer technology. The main objective of the present study was to perform all the possible crossings among seven progenitors, but only 26 crosses were performed of which 12 produced fruit. The best male progenitors were Caesar, Fianna and Orquesta. The best cross was Atlantic x Caesar, followed by Fianna x Caesar (147 and 135 seeds per fruit, respectively).
