Genetic developments at TSL could improve potato processing

 
Potato performance and quality is always a hot topic. At The Sainsbury Lab, in Norwich, scientists have been using the latest methods enable some improvements for the humble spud.
“Our goal at TSL is replace chemistry with genetics for control of important crop diseases, so that farmers and consumers everywhere can benefit from reduction in the need for agrichemical applications, by enabling creation of crop varieties that carry genetic resistance.”
Join Jonathan Jones, Agnieeszka Witek and Sebastian Fairhead for an update on how high-tech breeding can improve lives for potato growers at the Innovation Hub on Wednesday 1st July.
