   Can genetically modified potatoes survive blight?

   • British scientists have developed genetically modified potatoes that are resistant to the vegetable's biggest threat - blight. A three-year trial has shown that these potatoes can thrive despite being exposed to late onset blight. That disease has plagued farmers for generations and it triggered the Irish potato famine in the 1840s.

   Can genetically engineered potatoes reduce fungicide use?

   • Simplot says the genetically engineered potatoes reduce the use of fungicide by half. The company said the potatoes will also have reduced bruising and black spots, enhanced storage capacity, and a reduced amount of a chemical created when potatoes are cooked at high temperatures that's a potential carcinogen.

   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.
