The changes of vitamin C content in relation to Cd, Pb and Zn accumulation in 6 potatoes varieties: very early (Junior, Impala), early (Livera), middle early (Agria), medium-late (Asterix, Desirée) were surveyed in this work. The soil used in pot trial had pseudototal (in soil extract of aqua regia
