AI Article Synopsis
- - Late blight, a severe disease affecting potato crops, can be tackled using genetically modified (GM) potatoes that carry three resistance (R) genes, which were tested over multiple seasons.
- - Field trials showed that these GM potatoes successfully exhibited full resistance to late blight, even in areas with diverse pathogen populations.
- - Additionally, interactions with consumers during these trials helped shift attitudes, resulting in a more positive perception of GM crops among the public.
Article Abstract
Late blight, caused by , is the most devastating disease in potato production. Here, we show full late blight resistance in a location with a genetically diverse pathogen population with the use of GM potato stacked with three resistance (R) genes over three seasons. In addition, using this field trials, we demonstrate that in-the-field intervention among consumers led to change for more favorable attitude generally toward GM crops.

The involvement of Loose Plant Architecture 1 (LPA1) in regulating plant growth and leaf angle has been previously demonstrated. However, the fundamental genetic background remains unidentified. To further understand the tissue expression profile of the NtLPA1 gene, an overexpression vector (pBI121-NtLPA1) was developed and employed to modify tobacco using the leaf disc method genetically.
