   What is a genetically modified potato?

   • Scientist Dr. J.R. Simplot, from the company Simplot, created a genetically modified potato. The goal was to create a potato that would not bruise or develop black spots and to reduce the amount of asparagine in the potato. This modification aims to make the potato healthier when frying.

   Can genetic modification improve a potato crop?

   • Some of these traits exist in wild potato relatives but their introgression into elite cultivars can take many years and, for traits such as pest resistance, their effect is often short-lasting. These problems can be addressed by genetic modification (GM) or gene editing (GE) and open a wide horizon for potato crop improvement.
