Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed study of the factors influencing the genetic improvement of the potato. The author investigates potato cultivation history, from its South American origins up until its cultivation in the United Kingdom. Published in 1907, this book serves as a critical examination of the methods of potato improvement in use during that time. The writer examines the use of other solanum species for genetic betterment and describes an array of potato plant characteristics and structures. The writer goes on to discuss the challenges of selecting mother plants, comparative hybridization approaches, and the means of carrying out controlled comparative observational trials. Notably, the text includes a section on correlations between various traits in the potato plant, offering insight into the behavior of potato genetics. The author concludes with a discussion of the potential for the inheritance of selected variations through tuber selection methods.
