2024-10-01
Abstract excerpt
Solanum microdontum (mcd) is a tuber-bearing relative of commercial potato. Although wild, it has many attractive traits for breeding. Previous research has shown it has exceptional ability to sequester calcium in its tubers, a trait associated with tuber disease resistance and tuber quality.
