   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).

   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.

   Are genetically modified potatoes safe to eat?

   • Plenty of GMO food probably already makes it on to your plate, and the scientific consensus is that it's safe to eat. So why are activists so opposed to genetically modified potatoes? "Do you want fries with that?" Not if they're made from genetically engineered potatoes, say activists who oppose GMOs.

   How is potato quality modified?

   • Modification of potato quality involves a reduction in the formation of acrylamide. This is achieved mainly by the reduction of amino acid asparagine or reducing sugars. Potato starch is used in the textile industry as well as a binder. Strains suitable for industrial applications produce more potato starch than potatoes suitable for food and feed.
