Abstract:
The present investigation “evolution of quality traits in red skinned and heat tolerant hybrids of potato (Solenum tuberosum L.)” has been carried out at Research Cum Demonstrational Farm, College of Agriculture, IGKV, Raipur, Chhattisgarh in the Rabi season during the year of 2020-21 and 2021-22 with sixteen red skinned and heat tolerant hybrids of potato. The experiment was laid down in Randomized Block Design with four replications. The quality indicators, total soluble solids, dry matter content, and specific gravity, were found to be significant. The total soluble solid was measured highest in the genotype P-78 and P-75 (6.48%). While, the genotype P-45 (18.75%) was found highest dry matter content%. However, the Specific gravity was recorded highest in genotype P-78 (1.088 g cm²).
