Abstract

The processing of potatoes into chips is expanding in China. There is a need for new processing cultivars that are well-suited for the local ecological environment. Eleven potato varieties were bred from hybridization and backcrossing between the local cultivated potato varieties (Solanum tuberosum L.) and wild potato species. Lines from different wild species’ germplasms showed that the ability to accumulate reducing sugars was significantly different during low temperature storage (4 °C). A correlation analysis was conducted to determine the correlation coefficient among reducing sugars, acid invertase, free amino acids, chip colors and the content of acrylamide after storage at room and low temperatures. The lines 0706-116, 0737-6 and 0726-205 had low levels of reducing sugars, acrylamide content and acceptable chip colors for potato chip processing. The results indicated that the transfer of wild species’ processing traits into local cultivars by hybridization and continuous backcrossing is an effective potato breeding method and that the wild germplasm resources S. phureja and S. chacoense are suitable for improving the processing traits of local varieties.

Resumen

El procesamiento de las papas en hojuelas está en expansión en china. Hay necesidad de nuevas variedades para proceso que se adapten al ambiente ecológico local. Se obtuvieron once variedades de papa con hibridación y retrocruzas entre las variedades locales cultivadas de papa (Solanum tuberosum L.) y especies silvestres. Líneas de diferentes germoplasmas de silvestres mostraron que la habilidad para acumular azúcares reductores fue significativamente diferente durante el almacenamiento a baja temperatura (4 °C). Se condujo un análisis para determinar el coeficiente de correlación entre azúcares reductores, ácido invertasa, aminoácidos libres, coloración de la hojuela y el contenido de acrilamida después del almacenamiento a temperatura ambiente y en frío. Las líneas 0706-116, 0737-6 y 0726-205 tuvieron bajos niveles de azúcares reductores contenido de acrilamida y coloración aceptable de la hojuela para procesamiento. Los resultados indicaron que la transferencia de caracteres de procesamiento de especies silvestres a variedades locales mediante hibridación y retrocruzas continuas es un método efectivo de mejoramiento, y que la fuente de germoplasma silvestre de S. phureja y S. chacoense es deseable para mejorar los caracteres de procesamiento de las variedades locales.
