   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.

   Are GM crops the fastest growing agricultural technology in the world?

   • Even though the adoption of GM crops is the fastest growing agricultural technology in the world, the biggest weakness of their promising applications remains the legislation limitation. However, it could be expected that legislative limits are likely to be breached soon as a result of the current food crisis in the world.

   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 ...
