Genetic epidemiology of late blight in Australia using ancient DNA Open
Late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans is the most destructive disease of potatoes worldwide and is most notable as the cause of the Irish potato famine of the mid 1840’s. Whole mitochondrial genome sequences were generated from 44 A…

Genome Enhanced Marker Improvement for Potato Virus Y Disease Resistance in Potato Open
Potato is an important food crop worldwide and is grown in a large number of countries. As such, the crop is under disease pressures and the need for selecting disease resistance genes during breeding programs is essential. Of particular i…

Making the most of all data: Combining non‐genotyped and genotyped potato individuals with HBLUP Open
Using genomic information to predict phenotypes can improve the accuracy of estimated breeding values and can potentially increase genetic gain over conventional breeding. In this study, we investigated the prediction accuracies achieved b…
