Abstract
The study aims to qualitatively and quantitatively characterize several genotypes of local potatoes cultivated in South Buru and to test the yield of local potataoes. The morphological characterization in this study refers to the guidelines of the International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants TG/23/6 (UPOV, 2004), while the yield test in this study was carried out using a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with a single favtor, namely factor varieties. The results showed that there was a diversity of morphology of local potatoes from South Buru where based on the results of Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA) and Principle Component Analysis (PCA-Biplot) it was found that the identifiers in the descriptors gave differences to each variety and the yield power of local potatoes of origin. Buru Selatan is low when compared to commercial potatoes from Garut but the local potatoes of the Bahutlawan variety has a tuber dry weight that is not different from that of the AR08 variety
