Аннотация

Scarcity of the qualitative seed material reflecting in the cultivation and productivity of potato is one of the main problems in Uzbekistan. Because of its high rank in the spending of seed material amounts (3,0-3,5 tons of potato seed tubers is planted per hectare) among the agricultural crops/ and here, the expenditure for only seed material consists of 50-60% out of all production expenditures per unit, there for, the enhancing of potato production efficiency by the measures focused on the lowering of production cost through the decreasing of seed material expenditures became one of the progressive challenges in agriculture.In the results of our experiments has been lightened that the least amount of plants (0,4-1,4%) were infected by the viruses of hidden character at the cultivation from the true seeds of potato.
