Abstract
AC Peregrine Red is a maincrop cultivar that produces very uniform attracti ve tubers with a deep red skin color. Marketable yields and skin color rete ntion in storage are superior to Norland in Canadian and some U.S.A. locati ons. The cultivar provides the fresh market industry with a high-yielding r ed-skinned potato, with good storage capacity and resistance to fusarium dr y rot.
