Title : | THE MINERAL COMPOSITION IN SOME LOCAL POTATO (Solanum tuberosum L.) POPULATIONS GROWING IN KOSOVO |
Abstract : | The mineral composition of potato tubers are variable and depend on genotypes, soil fertility, agro-technology applied and climatic conditions. Aim of this paper was research of 22 local potato populations (LPP’s) in terms of diversity of microelements (Zn, Cu, and Fe) and macro-elements (Ca, Na, K, and Mg) contents. The randomized block design experiment (RBDE) with three replications was carried out. The genetic relative variability between LPP for the mineral content were with significant differences at both levels of probability LSD=0.05 and LSD=0.01. The LPP’s involved in this research generally showed high diversity in terms of mineral content. |
