Genetic Variation Among Potato Genotypes for Thber Protein Subunits

Abstract

Tuber protein subunit based genetic variation was analysed among 38 potato genotypes using similarity index value.
Results indicated that Kinship did not correspond to similarity in banding patterns of the cultivars. Cultivar
combinations viz., Kufri Pukhraj and JX-216, JW-96 and JX-216, MS/91-1325 and JX-216, 85-P-127 and 85-P670,
85-P-127 and 85-P-ll etc. with low SI values were considered to be divergent parents and recommended for
hybrid breeding progarammes.
