QTL mapping of foliar glycoalkaloid aglycones in Solanum tuberosum x S. berthaultii potato progenies: quantitative variation and plant secondary metabolism
1998-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Glycoalkaloids are quantitatively inherited in Solanum, and in high concentrations they can be toxic to humans. The increased use of wild potato germplasm to improve the pest resistance, yield, and quality characteristics of cultivated potato may elevate or introduce new, more toxic glycoalkaloids into the cultivated gene pool. Therefore, it is important to increase our understanding of their inheritance, accumula...
