“Good morning and good episode. My name is Graham and I am a PhD student at Washington State University Pullman working on potato physiology.

The cultivar is Payette Russet and it was bred by Dr. Rich Novy of the USDA-ARS Aberdeen in collaboration with the Pacific Northwest Variety Development Program (PNWVDP).
