While in Alsuwera site, Bureen, Rivera, and Rudolph significantly surpassed Arizona and Elmundo in plant height.

Rivera was superior to Arizona and Elmundo in stems number and the dry weight of vegetative total.

Both Bureen and Rivera recorded the highest average of tubers number (6.27 tuber.Plant-1), significantly higher than Elmundo.

Rivera gave the highest average of tuber weight (110.56 g), total (692.99 g.plant-1) and marketable yield (33.26 tons.ha-1), thus superior to the rest of the varieties except Bureen.
