简要介绍了英国剑桥英联邦马铃薯收藏馆的历史。1939年进行了第一次收集考察，当时从墨西哥、哥伦比亚、厄瓜多尔、秘鲁、玻利维亚和阿根廷获得了1000多株马铃薯材料。此后，这一点不时从各种来源得到加强。在1940-1950年期间，该收藏品作为英联邦育种者的分销中心，在剑桥进行了以下标题的研究：分类学;细胞学;对枯萎病的抗性;对链格孢属的抗性;病毒研究;抗冻性;生物化学研究;对线虫（金根线虫）的抗性;光周期反应;和初步育种研究。在英联邦其他地区和英国的试验站也进行了对疣、镰刀菌腐烂病和科罗拉多甲虫的抗性试验。最近的工作和趋势的大纲也给出了，现在的重点放在细胞遗传学研究的材料在收集。|| 摘要评论：J.G.霍克斯
A brief historical account of the Commonwealth Potato Collection at Cambridge, England, is given. The first collecting expedition took place in 1939, when over 1000 lines of potato material were obtained from Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Argentina. This has since been augmented from time to time from various sources. During the yrs. 1940-1950 the collection served as a distribution center to breeders in the British Commonwealth, studies being made at Cambridge under the following headings: taxonomy; cytology; resistance to blight; resistance to Alternaria; virus studies; frost resistance; biochemical studies; resistance to eelworm (golden root nematode); photoperiodic response; and preliminary breeding studies. Tests for resistance to wart, Fusarium rot and Colorado beetle were also made at stations in other parts of the Commonwealth and in Great Britain. An outline of recent work and trends is also given, the emphasis being now placed on cytogenetical studies of the material in the collection. || ABSTRACT AUTHORS: J. G. Hawkes
