   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. They developed this potato for blight resistance by inserting a gene (Rpi-vnt1.1), into ...

   Can GM potatoes be genetically modified?

   • Thus far, no GM potato cultivar prepared for this purpose has been engineered. From all of the above, it can be concluded that many potato threats are elegantly addressed by genetic modification and transgenic plants could produce less metabolites that are harmful for the consumers (malondialdehyde, calreticulin, glycoalkaloids, and others).

   Are GMOs good for potatoes?

   • Most GMOs are connected with insect resistance (60%), disease resistance (38%) and modification of potato quality (34%). These properties are usually stacked in one potato ( Figure 1 ), which is especially beneficial for farmers, who can then increase their productivity even in difficult agricultural conditions.

   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 ...
