Episode 84
Good morning and good episode. My name is Graham and I am a PhD student at Washington State University Pullman working on potato physiology. I wanted to briefly update the both of you that in fact there is a bred cultivar of potato which has whole plant (as opposed to just in the foliage or roots/tubers) resistance to late blight. The cultivar is Payette Russet and it was bred by Dr. Rich Novy of the USDA-ARS Aberdeen in collaboration with the Pacific Northwest Variety Development Program (PNWVDP). I believe it was released for sale in 2015. It also has resistance to resistance to verticillium wilt, corky ringspot, early blight, common scab, and potato virus Y (PVY). The future is now! Cheers gentlemen
