- Abstract
Vanguard Russet (TX08352-5Ru) is a medium-early maturing potato cultivar released by Texas A&M AgriLife Research in 2018. Vanguard Russet produces attractive oblong to long tubers with medium russet skin and white flesh, blocky shape and uniform size, ideally suited for the fresh market. Vanguard Russet produces. It produces a high yield of marketable tubers, with many tubers in the 170 to 510 g size category, some oversized (> 510 g) tubers, and fewer culls than Russet Norkotah. Vanguard Russet has low external tuber defects (growth cracks, second growth), internal tuber defects (hollow heart, internal brown spot, vascular discoloration, blackspot bruise), and has a long tuber dormancy. Vanguard Russet is susceptible to PVY but has good symptom expression and is moderately resistant to common scab and Fusarium dry rot. Vanguard Russet is an excellent cultivar option for fresh market potato production due to its high marketable yields, excellent external and internal tuber quality, and long tuber dormancy.
