Abstract (AB)Increasing cost of imported seed potatoes has necessitated the launching of a scheme for seed production in Mauritius. An analysis of disease factors influencing seed production is presented. Results obtained in trials as well as in pilot plantations have shown that local production of seed can be successful. Although cool-stored seeds gave a larger proportion of smaller tubers than imported seed, the yield of commercial-grade tubers was not inferior.
