Potato breeding methods that utilize haploids of Solanum tuberosum group Tuberosum or group Andigena and 2n gametes exploit the genetic diversity, including both valuable traits and allelic diversity, available in exotic germ plasm. Three essential components are involved: (i) the wild and cultivated 2x relatives of the cultivated 4x potato are a valuable source of genetic diversity; (ii) haploids (2n = 2x = 24) of cultivars (2n = 4x = 48) are effective in capturing diversity (germ plasm enhancement); (iii) 2n gametes, resulting from first division restitution, are an efficient method of transmitting this genetic diversity to cultivated 4x potatoes. Heterosis for total and marketable tuber yield and specific gravity occurs in 4x families from crosses between 4x cultivars and 2x haploid Tuberosum × 'Phureja' hybrids. Selected 4x clones from relatively small 4x × 2x families have been released as cultivars based on their earliness and heat tolerance in the tropics. Other 4x clones from 4x × 2x crosses, wher...
