   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 ...

   Which genes are transferred from wild Solanum to cultivated potatoes?

   • Ghislain et al., 89 designed a study in which three R genes were transferred from wild Solanum species to cultivated potatoes, achieving complete resistance. The transformed cultivars were Desirée and Victoria, and the genes chosen for transformation with A. tumefaciens were RB and Rpi-blb2 from S. bulbocastanum, and Rpi-vnt1.1 from S. venturii.
