   Can genetic engineering help fight potato late blight?

   • Dr. Eric Magembe is committed to using the tools of genetic engineering to fight the devasating potato late blight disease in sub-Saharan Africa. Since the onset of his career, Magembe, a research scientist with the International Potato Center (CIP), has been curious to see how science can be translated into solutions.

   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).

   How did they develop a potato for blight resistance?

   • They developed this potato for blight resistance by inserting a gene (Rpi-vnt1.1), into the DNA of Désirée potatoes. This gene, which conferred the resistance to blight, was isolated from a wild relative of potatoes, Solanum venturii, which is a native of South America.

   Can bioengineered potatoes be cultivated Without fungicides?

   • According to Magembe, results from field trials conducted by the National Agricultural Organization (NARO) in Uganda showed that bioengineered (genetically engineered) potatoes could be cultivated without use of fungicides, while non-bioengineered potatoes were rapidly killed by late blight disease.
