Using herbarium collections to study genetic responses to global change
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Earth's c. 406 million herbarium specimens represent a largely untapped resource of genetic data that could transform our understanding of global plant populations. Advances in DNA sequencing have made the extraction of genetic data from these preserved specimens increasingly feasible, enabling new insights into plant biodiversity and ...

Managing potato biodiversity to cope with frost risk in the high Andes: a modeling perspective.
PLoS ONE, 2014 Austral summer frosts in the Andean highlands are ubiquitous throughout the crop cycle, causing yield losses. In spite of the existing warming trend, climate change models forecast high variability, including freezing temperatures.

Applied Biotechnology to combat the late blight in potato caused by Phytophthora infestans [PDF]
, 2009 Potato is an important crop, grown worldwide. It suffers from many pests and diseases among which late blight, caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans, is the worst.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Forward genetics has been instrumental in identifying genes underlying desirable traits, yet its application to polyploid plants, many of which are key agricultural crops, remains challenging due to their genomic complexity. Therefore, we developed BenthMap, a bulk segregant analysis platform for high‐throughput trait mapping and gene ...

Genome editing in potato via CRISPR-Cas9 ribonucleoprotein delivery [PDF]
, 2018 Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats and CRISPR-associated protein-9 (CRISPR-Cas9) can be used as an efficient tool for genome editing in potato (Solanum tuberosum).

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Drought stress is a major abiotic factor that severely affects plant growth and food production. Identifying drought‐resistant genes and their regulatory mechanisms is essential for mitigating the negative impacts of drought on plants. In this study, we identified a natural single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mutation in SlWRKY16 that is ...

Agrobacterial rol genes modify thermodynamic and structural properties of starch in microtubers of transgenic potato [PDF]
, 2010 Wild-type (WT) plants of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) and their transgenic forms carrying agrobacterial genes rolB or rolC under the control of B33 class I patatin promoter were cultured in vitro on MS medium with 2% sucrose in a controlled-climate ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Gynostemma pentaphyllum, a herb used in tea and traditional Chinese medicine, shows geographic variation in its production of valuable dammarane‐type ginsenosides and gypenoside LVI between populations from Suining (SN) and Nanning (NN). To elucidate the mechanisms underlying this differential metabolite accumulation, a chromosome‐level genome
