Narrative
W-376 is a sweetpotato breeding line evaluated in the field several years at the U. S. Vegetable Laboratory in Charleston, SC for yield, quality, and pest resistance. Bedded roots sprout readily. W-376 plants are vigorous and produce a leaf canopy that covers the ground. Roots of W-376 have a medium copper skin and a dark orange flesh. This genotype shows good resistance to soil insect pests and nematodes. The material placed in storage at the PGRCU was virus tested tissue culture plantlets sent by Zvezdana Pesic VanEsbroeck, Director of the Micropopagation and Repository Unit, Department of Plant Pathology, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC

Pedigree
Description:
W-376 is a clonally propagated sweetpotato genotype that originated from a single seed from a polycross breeding nursery in 1995 in which 26 parents were randomly distributed in four field replications at the USDA ARS, U. S. Vegetable Laboratory (USVL), Charleston, SC. Pollination was by natural bee populations. Its original designation was 96-086, and it was later renamed W-376. The maternal parent of W-376 is W-285 from the sweetpotato breeding program at the USVL. The paternal parent of W-376 is one of the other 25 genotypes in the polycross nursery
