    Jan 6, 2022 · Potato ( Solanum tuberosum L.) is the third most important crop worldwide and a staple food for many people worldwide. Genetically, it poses many challenges for traditional breeding due to its autotetraploid nature and its tendency toward inbreeding depression. Breeding programs have focused on productivity, nutritional quality, and disease ...

    Jan 10, 2022 · These regulations take into consideration food, feed, and environmental safety risks. Some countries have a process-oriented regulation and have established that the regulations that apply to genetically modified organism should be also applied to genome editing developments (European Union, New Zealand) (Nadakuduti et al., 2018).

    A genetically modified potato is a potato that has had its genes modified, using genetic engineering. Goals of modification include introducing pest resistance, tweaking the amounts of certain chemicals produced by the plant, and to prevent browning or bruising of the tubers. Varieties modified to produce large amounts of starches may be ...

    Aug 7, 2013 · Genetic mapping in cultivated potato has been hindered by its complex genetics. Most cultivars and breeding lines are autotetraploid and carry a high genetic load (Milbourne et al., 2007). Tools such as (homozygous) mutant lines, recombinant inbred lines and near-isogenic lines are not available in potato.

    Apr 9, 2021 · Production of Genetically Modified Potatoes: Potato transformation using Agrobacterium-mediated systems was developed in the 1980s, with A. tumefaciens becoming the species of choice. Marker-free transformants can be produced by using transformation vectors without selection markers, followed by PCR analysis of regenerated plants for the ...

    Jan 8, 2022 · Genetically modified potato plants using RNAi have already been approved at the commercial level and appropriate issues for risk assessment have been defined for this crop (Arpaia et al. 2020). Other advantages of RNAi in potatoes include its partial loss of function characteristic, thus producing several phenotypes of differing severity which ...
