Description The study conducted at ICAR-Central Potato Research Institute, Regional Station Gwalior over a six-year periodfrom 2017-18 to 2022-23 aimed to evaluate the performance of 17 popular potato varieties. These varieties were dividedinto early maturing and medium maturing categories. The study focused on various yield attributes and health parametersof these potato varieties, with a particular emphasis on breeder seed production. The emergence percentage ranged from85% to 99%, indicating that different varieties had varying rates of successful sprouting and growth. Health status of thevarieties was found sound. Variability was observed among varieties for yield attributing parameters and Kufri Neelkanthemerged as the top-performing variety in the study. It displayed the highest seed yield per square meter (3.31 kg), thehighest number of tubers per square meter (231), and the largest mean seed weight (25.1 grams). Additionally, it had asignificant seed multiplication ratio (SMR) by both number (6.9) and weight (25.1).
