Genetic diversity in Japanese and North American potato cultivars for processing was evaluated by RAPD analysis. Thirty-six polymorphic DNA segments, or RAPDs , were detected by amplification via Polymerase chain Reaction (PCR) with fourteen decamer primers in eight Japanese and eight North American cultivars. The average numbers of different RAPDs were 14.4 within Japanese cultivars, 13.9 within North American cultivars, and 14.7 between them. Their differences were not significant. Therefore, it is indicated that the genetic diversities considerably similar in Japanese and North American cultivars
