Tóm tắt

The Allagash Russet potato is an early to mid-season variety with oblong, attractive, uniformly-russeted tubers. Resistance of tubers to skinning and bruising during handling, and slow sugar build-up in cold storage are two advantages of this all-purpose potato. Tubers do not show the net necrosis associated with leafroll virus infection, and are moderately resistant to common scab.
