   Will genetically modified potatoes combat malnutrition in India?

   • Genetically modified potatoes will play a key part in an ambitious 15-year plan to combat malnutrition among India’s poorest children. Anti-poverty campaigners have greeted the “protato” with cautious support. The three-pronged attack on childhood mortality would aim to provide children with clean water, better food and vaccines.

   Can GM potatoes be genetically modified?

   • Thus far, no GM potato cultivar prepared for this purpose has been engineered. From all of the above, it can be concluded that many potato threats are elegantly addressed by genetic modification and transgenic plants could produce less metabolites that are harmful for the consumers (malondialdehyde, calreticulin, glycoalkaloids, and others).

   Sep 14, 2022 · Potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) are one of the most important crops worldwide. However, its production and nutrient content are endangered by both biotic and abiotic stresses. The main yield losses are caused by pest damage (e.g., Colorado potato beetle and aphids), virus disease (e.g., Potato leafroll virus and Potato viruses Y and X), or oomycete pathogens (like Phytophthora infestans), which ...
