Solanum tuberosum subsp. andigenum 4x

PI 243470 at Genesys

Accession Details

An andigena type potato from Colombia.  This is a cross of PI 243368 x PI 243401.  Both parents are still available, so I’m not sure why this cross was made or preserved.

Observations

TPS.  Round to elliptic.  Blues, with white to yellow flesh, a few with a colored vascular ring.  Short to mid stolons.  Late season with some short day tuberizers.
