Research on diploid hybrid potato has made fast advances in recent years. In this review we give an overview of the most recent and relevant research outcomes. We define different components needed for a complete hybrid program: inbred line development, hybrid evaluation, cropping systems and variety registration. For each of these components the important research results are discussed and the outcomes and issues that merit further study are identified. We connect fundamental and applied research to application in a breeding program, based on the experiences at the breeding company Solynta. In the concluding remarks, we set hybrid breeding in a societal perspective, and we identify bottlenecks that need to be overcome to allow successful adoption of hybrid potato.

Maejo 341 Sweet potato (MSP) is a new purple sweet potato variety cultivated in Northern Thailand, but its health benefits are unknown. This study aimed to investigate its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-osteoporotic activities, as well as its anthocyanin content. The peel and flesh of MSP were extracted with ethanol and water.

There is increasing interest in the development of meat analogs due to growing concerns about the environmental, ethical, and health impacts of livestock production and consumption. Among non-meat protein sources, mycoproteins derived from fungal fermentation are emerging as promising meat alternatives because of their natural fibrous structure, high nutritional content, and low environmental impact. However, their poor gelling properties limit their application in creating meat analogs.

Following the identification of the self-compatibility gene () in diploid potatoes two decades ago, the breeding of inbred based diploid hybrid potatoes made its way. Tetraploid potatoes have a long history of cultivation through domestication and selection. Tetrasomic inheritance, heterozygosity and clonal propagation complicate genetic studies, resulting in a low genetic gain in potato breeding.

Amaranth is an ancient crop of the family Amaranthaceae, but it is fairly new to Russia. Its seeds and leaf biomass contain a high-quality gluten-free protein, fatty acids, squalene (a polyunsaturated hydrocarbon), flavonoids, vitamins, and minerals. A comprehensive study of amaranth, enhancement of its breeding, and development of new cultivars will contribute to food quality improvement through the use of plant raw materials enriched for wholesome and highly nutritious components.

Research on high-yielding and biomass of maize hibrids which adaptive to intercropping environment is important in the context of modern agriculture faced with the challenges of climate change. The field evaluation was conducted in Arjasari, West Java, Indonesia, for two seasons in three different cropping systems, namely: maize sole cropping, maize+soybean intercropping and maize+sweet potato intercropping. The evaluation applied a randomized completed block design with three replications.
