Report on Demonstration Trials and Evaluations of Potato Varieties in Moscow Region, 2010
This report details the demonstration trials conducted in early May 2010 in the Moscow region, highlighting methods and findings related to potato varieties. Key figures, including Boris Anisimov and Ruedi Schwaerzel, contributed to testing and evaluating various samples, with a focus on laboratory tests for virus resistance. Observations noted discrepancies between laboratory results and field conditions, particularly regarding virus incidence and plant health. The results aid in understanding the performance of different potato varieties in various climates and contribute to the Russian potato catalogue.
