  1. May 26, 2020 · … Together with new breeding technologies …. genetic modification remains a useful tool in the genetic improvement of potatoes. The 100-plus wild species relatives of potato provide a virtually...

  2. Sep 14, 2022 · BASF Plant Science developed two approved GM potatoes (Amflora and Starch Potato), but none of them are approved for cultivation and are no longer marketed. The inserted gene minimizes the amylose content by lowering the level of granule-bound starch synthase.

  5. Feb 27, 2020 · Magembe and other scientists are fighting to change the negative narrative around crops produced by genetic engineering — commonly referred to as genetically modified organisms (GMOs). So far, they have done six confined field trials experiments for LBD-resistant potatoes in Uganda and are in talks with the Kenya Agricultural and Livestock ...

  6. In 2014, a team of British scientists published a paper about three-year field trial showing that another genetically modified version of the Désirée cultivar can resist infection after exposure to late blight, one of the most serious diseases of potatoes.

  7. Jun 14, 2021 · In the 1960s, plant scientists in the US bred a new potato variety that was ideal for making into crisps, but also contained dangerously high levels of natural toxins. The potato had to be ...

  8. Sep 9, 2022 · Because potatoes are an important commodity in the food and feed industry, there is growing pressure to adopt genetically modified plants that are tolerant to adverse conditions. Great development is also expected thanks to the new efficient genome editing tool (CRISPR/Cas9), which will make genetic transfection faster and more efficient than ...
