Potato (Solanum tuberosum) originated in Peru-Bolivian region, was introduced in India long back towards the beginning of 17th century from Europe. After the establishment of CPRI, Shimla in 1949, potato germplasm collection, conservation, evaluation, documentation and utilization received greater ...

Many different potato species and varieties have been cultivated by the Quechua and Aymara peoples of the central Andes. By the early 16th century, the potato was introduced into Europe by the Spanish, who found them in the New World. However, it was not until the 18th century that it beca...
After the discovery of the Mexican wild species Solanum demissum as an excellent source of resistance, eleven major genes were introduced in cultivated tetraploid potato breeding lines (Black et al. 1953; Malcolmson and Black 1966). Although some of these genes can be considered defeated, others,...
The principal cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum) has mainly been vegetatively propagated through its tubers. Potato breeders have therefore made planned
Haitibatata"sweet potato." Sweet potatoes were first to be introduced to Europe; they were in cultivation in Spain by mid-16c. and in Virginia by 1648. Early 16c. Portuguese traders carried the crop to all their shipping ports and the sweet potato was quickly adopted from Africa to India ...
In contrast, when PGPR was introduced with 20 μM KP led to a 6.32% increase more than the control, with 30 μM CA showed a 2.92% increase, and combining 30 μM CA with 20 μM KP resulted in an 11.04% increase (Fig. 1C). The application of 20 μM KP, 30 μM CA, and 20...

and was introduced from the Americas in Spain around 1570 and in British Islands around 1590. It was only slowly adopted by European populations. Potato is a tetraploid species. It is propagated vegetatively, and many diseases, including viruses, are transmitted through the tubers. Schemes for ...
A sample stage gate process, accelerated multi-trait selection schemes, heritability and heterosis exploitation, genomic selection, data management, and end user consultations are introduced in the contexts of these two programs. The topic of this chapter is supported and augmented with further details...
