Resistant potatoes to Late Blight( phytophthora infestans)
Since 2010, I have varieties of resistant potatoes wiith flowers and have berries) containing seeds.
Now I have seeds collected on resistant varieties: Sarpo Mira http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047070 (Sarpo) Axona http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047099 Sarpo Una Frieslander http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047123 A crossing realized in 2010 by a Belgian:Sarpo Mira x Vitelotte Grande Gold Thumbs(Tom Wagner) From TPS of Sarpo Mira, I obtained potatoes with colors of different skin and different flesh: Pink skin and white flesh Red skin and pink flesh Purple skin and purple flesh http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047158 Yellow skin and white flesh http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047188 Purple Skin and white flesh http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047217 Black skin and blue flesh http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047252 Orange skin and yellow flesh All these potatoes resist to the late blight and become very big (1 m 80) From TPS (Sarpo) Axona, I obtained Pink skin and white flesh Red skin and red flesh http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047324 http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047339 Black skin and blue flesh From TPS sarpo una ,I obtained only potatoes looking like the sarpo una of origin. I was amazed at the resistance of a Dutch potato ( Frieslander) which resisted to the late blight in 2012 (which (destroyed 50 % of my varieties of potatoes). In 2013, Frieslander was very prolific, decorated with flowers well and in given many berries. The gold thumbs of Tom Wagner's TPS gave me in 2012 of potatoes with purple skin very resistant. http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388048322 http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388048337 The crossing Sarpo mira x vitelotte grande is very resistant to late blight and I had Red skin and pink flesh http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047519 http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047560 http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047544 Pink skin and white flesh Red skin and white flesh photo 16 Black skin and white and blue flesh http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047589 Black slin and white and pink flesh http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047603 Purple skin and white flesh http://tomatoville.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1388047613 I have a few TPS for test if you send a PM. A batch have 5 TPS and you can have a batch of each variety. Each variety have one name of a greek letter and number (the ligne and his position in the ligne) or the year of the collect of berries R:very resist to late blight r:resist to the late blight Each TPS can give very much different colors of the skin and the flesh. I have: 4 batchs of 5 TPS Sarpo Mira alpha de 2011 R 20 batchs of 5 TPS Sarpo Mira Théda2105 R 4 batchs of 5 TPS sarpo Mira Purple skin Pi2905 R 12 batchs of 5 TPS Axona black skin theda 1407 r 3 batchs of 5 TPS Axona black skin theda 1408 r 5 batchs of 5 TPS Axona black skin zeta 0604 r 2 batchs of 5 TPS Sarpo Una Lambda 02 2 batchs of 5 TPS Sarpo Una Lambda 04 2 batchs of 5 TPS SMVG 2011R 2 batchs of 5 TPS SMVG black skin 2012 101R 3 batchs of 5 TPS SMVG pink flesh 2012 315R 4 batchs of 5 TPS SMVG 2013 1904 r 1 batch of 5 TPS SMVG pink flesh 2013 1102R 4 batchs of 5 TPS SMVG pink flesh 2013 1104R 1 batch of 5 TPS SMVG pink flesh 2013 1106R 12 batchs of 5 TPS SMVG pink 20 flesh 13 1107R 4 batchs of 5 TPS Frieslander theda 1405 R 2 batchs of 5 TPS Frieslander theda 1401 R 15 batchs of 5 TPS Frieslander theda 1402 R 4 batchs of 5 TPS Frieslander theda 1403 R 14 batchs of 5 TPS Frieslander theda 1404 R Last edited by Ambiorix; December 26, 2013 at 05:07 AM. |

Ambiorix,
I believe you are also aware that lower soil pH will inhibit diseases in potatoes (?) http://www.clemson.edu/extension/hgi.../hgic1317.html

Potatoes resisting to late blight interest nobody?
These varieties produce seeds during 3 months Cela n'intéresse personne des pommes de terre qui résistent au mildiou et produisent des pommes de terre de toutes les couleurs de peau et de chair? Elles grandissent sans arrêt et sans maladie pendant 120 jours. Elles ont au moins 10 tiges et les plants mesurent 1m 80 de haut. Last edited by Ambiorix; January 18, 2014 at 11:15 AM. |

I have interest in any potato that has natural resistance to disease. I've been lucky to not get late blight. I do have more scab and wireworm damage in older clones so I will grow TPS this year again.

I have interest as well. Especially late blight. That's been my #1 problem 2 of the last 3 years. Just sent you a pm.

Your offsprings look great! Do you think the Sarpo varieties has genes for colored flesh which expressed themselves trough self pollination or might it have come from crossing by bee? I hope my Sarpo Mira this year will produce some berries as interesting as yours, they will be growing with Red Emmalie, Salad blue, Highland burgundy red and a whole bunch of my op tps plants from some Swedish white/yellow fleshed - red an white skinned parents.
There's no wind borne blight where I live, but I guess it's just a matter of time so I'm in the works with backyard breeding some hopefully hardy ones. |

I think the color in his crosses most likely comes from the pollen donors. Vitellotte Grande is one such potato, which is a purple fingerling, purple inside and out.
It is possible the Sarpo varieties do have colored ancestors. I have not grown out TPS from any Sarpo's to see. |

I think you are right NathanP, SMVG looks like the ones with colored flesh.

Does anyone know where I can buy Sarpo Mira seed potatoes in the USA? Or a place that will ship them to the USA?
Thanks Dwight |

There currently do not appear to be many places in the US where they are available commercially. Shipping from out of the US would involve quarantining them and a phytosanitary permit ... not a timely option.
I would try contacting Curzio from the Kenosha Potato Project. He sometime sells through the Seed Saver Exchange as well. I don't know if he has any left at this point, but it is a variety he grows. He has at least two other Sarpo potatoes as well. I will leave that email link there for now. I don't feel comfortable leaving it permanently, so let me know when you have it so I can remove it.

I am an amateur passionate about potatoes and tomatoes for 40 years.
I do not ask for any money for my seeds just a report of the cultures of my TPS with photos. I ask for some seeds of resistant tomatoes the phytophtora infestans very difficult to find in Europe. How many seeds do you want to receive? |
