Molecular Mechanisms of Dual Potato Reproduction. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Changing environmental conditions caused by global warming threaten potato cultivation due to its sensitivity to both heat and drought. Unfortunately, classic potato breeding is slow to generate varieties that, whereas maintaining good yields, are resistant to unfavourable climatic conditions.

GpaXIltar originating from Solanum tarijense is a major resistance locus to Globodera pallida and is localised on chromosome 11 of potato [PDF]
Resistance to Globodera pallida Rookmaker (Pa3), originating from wild species Solanum tarijense was identified by QTL analysis and can be largely ascribed to one major QTL.

High resolution mapping of a novel late blight resistance gene Rpi-avll, from the wild Bolivian species Solanum avilesii [PDF]
Both Mexico and South America are rich in Solanum species that might be valuable sources of resistance (R) genes to late blight (Phytophthora infestans). Here, we focus on an R gene present in the diploid Bolivian species S. avilesii.

The influence of organic and conventional fertilisation and crop protection practices, preceding crop, harvest year and weather conditions on yield and quality of potato (Solanum tuberosum) in a long-term management trial [PDF]
The effects of organic versus conventional crop management practices (fertilisation, crop protection) and preceding crop on potato tuber yield (total, marketable, tuber size grade distribution) and quality (proportion of diseased, green and damaged ...

Mapping loci for chlorosis associated with chlorophyII b deficiency in potato [PDF]
About 30% of the potato plants from a (Solanum tuberosum × S. berthaultii) × S. tuberosum backcross population had chlorotic, malformed leaves; but a gradation in symptom severity suggested regulation by more than one gene.

The potato cyst nematode Globodera pallida overcomes major potato resistance through selection on standing variation at a single locus. [PDF]
Summary Globodera pallida poses a major threat to potato production, with management strategies primarily relying on genetic resistance. However, increasing virulence in field populations across Western Europe raises major concerns for G. pallida control.

Molecular description and similarity relationships among native germplasm potatoes (Solanum tuberosum ssp. tuberosum L.) using morphological data and AFLP markers [PDF]
Chile is considered to be a sub-center of origin for the cultivated potato, with native and introduced genetic material coexisting in the country. Thus, the different varieties present in Chiloe Island are characterized by a rich diversity of forms, sizes, colours and phenological characteristics.

Identification of alleles of carotenoid pathway genes important for zeaxanthin accumulation in potato tubers [PDF]
We have investigated the genetics and molecular biology of orange flesh colour in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). To this end the natural diversity in three genes of the carotenoid pathway was assessed by SNP analyses.
