Project code: JKI-EP-08-2193
Contract period: 01.01.2004 - 30.06.2008
Purpose of research: Basic research

New sources of resistance originating from wild Solanum spp. (S. tarnii, S. bulbocastanum, S. cardiophyllum, S. pinnatisectum) against most important potato viruses (Potato virus Y and Potato leafroll virus), and if possible against Phytophtora, will be utilised for resistance breeding. Introduction will be performed by protoplast fusion and successive back-crossing steps.
