Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Upstate Abundance is a fresh market white-fleshed potato cultivar with resistance to both pathotypes Ro1 and Ro2 of the golden cyst nematode ( Globodera rostochiensis ) as well as to late blight ( Phytophthora infestans ) lineage US-23. It was selected from a cross made at Cornell University in 2000 between the Cornell breeding clone NY121 and the fresh-market cultivar Jacqueline Lee and released by the New York Agricultural Experiment Station in 2017. The tubers are small and round with modestly-recessed eyes and smooth skin; total yield across 20 trials in New York and Pennsylvania averaged 36.6 Mg ha − 1 , with about half the yield in tubers less than 4.75 cm in diameter and most of the rest in tubers between 4.75 and 6.4 cm in diameter.
