Abstract excerpt
Tuber eye depth of the potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is an important trait for the processing quality and appearance of potatoes. In the present study, we used a cultivated diploid potato family (12601) of 107 plants to dissect the mode of inheritance and to map the gene(s) controlling the trait. The family segregated for both eye depth (deep vs shallow) and tuber shape (round vs long) traits. The deep eye (Eyd)...
