Abstract: BRS Eliza is a tablestock potato cultivar released in 2001, by Embrapa Clima Temperado, Pelotas, Brazil. It is adequate for purée and salad. Maturity is medium early. Tubers are oval shaped, yellow and smooth skin, low sensitivity to greening, yellow clear flesh and shallow eyes. BRS Eliza did not show physiological defects on the tubers. Has a good field resistance to late (Phytophthora infestans) and early blight (Alternaria solani), and medium resistance to main viroses. BRS Eliza is susceptible to black leg (Erwinia carotovora). It produces a high percentage of commercial tubers. Must be marketed immediately after harvesting. It requires accurate seed management in storage.
