Entries Retained from the 2006 Trials Currently in the Tri-State Trial

A0008-1TE, A97066-42LB, PA99N2-1, and PA99N82-4 were retained from the 2006 Tri-State Trial. On average, A97066-42LB and PA99N82-4 produced lighter fries than Ranger or Russet Burbank after 7 months of storage. They also had lower reducing sugar concentrations. PA99N2-1 produced mottled fries from all three states. Sprout lengths of the numbered clones were considerably longer than either check, indicating shorter dormancy.
