[QUOTE="BillTre, post: 6868432, member: 581757"] This is from [URL='https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11540-021-09517-w']this review of potato genetics[/URL] (which surprisingly is open access): Sounds like the strains of potatoes you might get as food are probably not good at breeding with flowers. Tetraploid means that a potato cell as four copies of each gene (and chromosome). This makes breeding for traits more difficult. Goldfish are also tetraploid, but they have been breed for a thousand years. [/QUOTE]
