This knowledge will deepen our understanding of self-incompatibility systems, which is important from a fundamental scientific perspective, but may have real-world implications in the breeding of not just potato, but also other Solanaceous crops such as tomato, eggplant and pepper." Nature Communications The work of Solynta and WUR has been described in the scientific journal Nature Communications, where the authors further describe how the discovery will profoundly impact in the speed of breeding and focus of potato breeding. Solynta and WUR have worked together extensively in the past and will continue to build on their successes. This discovery is the most recent in their successful public- private collaboration. Now that the self-incompatibility has been solved together, the teams can aim their research interests at solving other issues which will leverage their unique skills. Ultimately the collaboration will provide improved potatoes that use fewer chemicals and are better adapted to a constantly changing climate and customer base. The Solynta agronomy team plants potato trials in the Netherlands.
