Magadan).
Demand for agricultural enterprises of all forms of property, engaged in the production of potatoes, in the early,
high-yielding, zoned varieties, determines the peculiarity of culture selection in the Magadan Region. Breeding work
on the creation of varieties is aimed at obtaining new potato genotypes with signs of early maturity, a short period of
vegetation, characterized by ecological plasticity, adaptability to stress factors of the environment and resistant to the
most common and harmful pathogens (late blight, scab, Rhizoctonia, etc).As a result of long breeding process (2002–
2018 years), a number of promising early – maturing hybrids obtained from crossing the original, parent forms of
different maturity groups were obtained. Together with scientists from A.G. Lorh Potato Research Institute created a new
