Abstract

Thirteen series of experiments to evaluate potato sprouting, the length of tuber dormancy and mass of sprouts were carried out in the years 1985–2001 at the Plant Breeding and Acclimatization Institute, Department Jadwisin. Altogether, 54 potato cultivars were tested. Significant differences between cultivars in the dormancy period, sprouting ability and mass of sprouts were found. It was shown that the length of dormancy, intensity of sprout growth, and particularly the mass of sprouts at 6°C and 10°C, were significantly correlated with optimal temperature of storage of seed potato tubers.
