Abstract

To implement programs of applied potato breeding at Lviv NЕU, when creating the initial breeding material, the staged intervarietal crossings were carried out. Its idea was to combine a complex of valuable economic traits that were inherent in the original parental forms into one genotype.

As a result of the stepwise intervarietal hybridization in Lviv NЕU, several new hybrid forms of potatoes of different origins and maturing periods were created. The original parental forms for hybridization used potato varieties of Ukrainian selection, namely Borodianska Rozheva, Vodohrai, Hibrydna 14, Volia, Zakhidna, Zov, Lishchyna, Lvivianka, Oksamyt, Povin, Svitanok Kyivskyi, and foreign varieties, such as Nevskа, Suzorye, Aminca, Sante, hybrid SVP.

The task of the research was to give a comprehensive assessment of promising intervarietal hybrids of potatoes according to their valuable economic and biological characteristics so that the best forms could be recommended as candidates for new varieties.

The research was conducted during 2020–2022. 9 new potato hybrids of different maturity groups were used for the studies. Each of the hybrids and the corresponding standard varieties of potatoes were planted on land plots with a plant feeding area of 70×35 cm, which amounted to 40.8 thousand plants per 1 ha. The experimental sites were placed in triplicate, using a systematic method. The registered area of the site was 25 m2. Potato varieties of domestic selection were used as standards, in particular, Vodohrai variety – for the mid-early group, Volia variety - for mid-ripening, and Zakhidna – for mid-late.

It is established that the stepwise intervarietal hybridization allows combining potentially high productivity (1000 g/bush and higher), intensive crop formation with increased starch content in tubers (16–18 %), and high resistance to late blight (at the level of 7–8 points).

Basing on the conducted research of the comprehensive evaluation of the economic and biological characteristics of new intervarietal hybrids of potatoes, the mid-early hybrid 02/10-40 (Borodianska rozheva × Suzorye), the mid-ripening 11/4-1 (Zakhidna × Vodohrai) and the mid-late hybrid 16/17-1 [(Zakhidna × Sante) × (Volia × Lishchyna)] were marked as they significantly prevailed in the complex of economic and valuable characteristics of the corresponding standard varieties. It is proposed to continue further selection work with them according to the accepted schemes and potato selection, intensively multiply, and prepare to pass to the State variety tests as candidates for new varieties of the crop.
