  1. Jan 6, 2022 · Genetically Modified Characteristics in Potato. Genetic modification has been highly successful in potato with commercialization of improved varieties for quantitative traits, such as productivity, and qualitative traits, such as disease resistance and nutritional quality. 73 The strategies utilized include both trans-genesis and cis-genesis ...

  4. Dec 23, 2022 · Genetic engineering offers new opportunities to improve potato plants in a relatively short time. It allows for the introduction of genes that can increase their resistance to insects, viral and bacterial diseases, and improve their nutritional value by enhancing protein, vitamin, carotenoid, and lipid content as well as by reducing ...

  5. Jan 6, 2024 · The use of genetic engineering techniques can improve potato production and address some of the challenges that potato producers face, such as disease susceptibility and environmental stress. CRISPR/Cas technology has been used in potato to improve traits such as yield, disease resistance, and nutritional content.

  6. Aug 23, 2021 · The Zhang et al. paper is among the most thought-provoking plant genetics papers of the last decade. First of all, it is a breeder’s tale about reinventing potato as a hybrid seed crop. However ...

  7. Jan 1, 2023 · Propagation of potato can be done sexually by using seeds and produce asexually by using potato tubers. For production and multiplication, tubers are used (Mohapatra and Batra, 2017, Struik and Wiersema, 1999). Most of the diploid potatoes show self-incompatibility. Genetic analysis and conventional breeding remain a challenge in potato cultivars.

  8. Jan 8, 2022 · Potato is one of the most important crops grown worldwide. The potato genome sequencing consortium has identified large numbers of genes having unknown functionality. To systematically assign functions to all predicted genes in its genome and their specific applications in potato improvement, different techniques have been developed over the years to generate mutants and analyze phenotypic ...
