Orchestra
Tubers have good resistance to splitting and some resistance to bruising. Trials have found good resistance to silver scurf and common scab. This variety has low resistance to dry rot (F. coeruleum and F. sulphureum) and late blight on foliage. Tests for resistance to potato cyst nematode demonstrated resistance to Globodera rostochiensis Ro1 and susceptibility to Globodera pallida Pa 2/3, 1.
