Summary: | Abstract Since 2003, the State Agrarian University of the Northern Trans-Urals has been conducting research on the cultivation of healthy seed tubers of the Vesna variety from botanical seeds. It was found that under the conditions of the northern forest-steppe of the Tyumen region, the marked variety for many years forms berries on plants. After ripening, the seeds washed from them after one to two years of storage have a high germination capacity. When sown in a greenhouse, they produce minitubers, and the next year, normal tubers. Their further reproduction in isolated areas of the taiga zone and the tundra zone makes it possible to obtain healthy seed tubers in the required volume for sale to amateur gardeners and small farms. |
