Effects of direct selection (on tuber yield per plant) and indirect selection (on leaf number per plant, total leaf area of plant and chlorophyll content in leaves) in F1 generation of hybrid seedlings of potato were analyzed in the present study. Investigations were conducted in a contemporary net house of the Potato Research Center in Guca, Serbia, during two years (1999-2000). The population of 150 genotypes developed from crosses of two Dutch varieties (Cosmos and Van Gogh) were used as the material for investigations. According to gained results, direct selection of F1 seedlings was the most successful method for obtaining high yielding clones. Selection of superior genotypes with a great leaf area was the best resulting indirect selection method.
