Nuclear and chloroplast DNA reassessment of the origin of Indian potato varieties and its implications for the origin of the early European potatoD M Spooner
USDA ARS, Department of Horticulture, University of Wisconsin, 1575 Linden Drive, Madison, WI 53706 1590, USA

U S Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Department of Horticulture, University of Wisconsin, 1575 Linden Drive, Madison, WI 53706 1590, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 102:14694-9. 2005....
Evolution of chromosome 6 of Solanum species revealed by comparative fluorescence in situ hybridization mappingQunfeng Lou
Department of Horticulture, University of Wisconsin Madison, 53706, USA
Chromosoma 119:435-42. 2010..We demonstrate that comparative FISH mapping is an efficient and powerful methodology to study chromosomal evolution among plant species diverged for up to 12 million years...
A test of taxonomic and biogeographic predictivity: resistance to soft rot in wild relatives of cultivated potatoYong Suk Chung
Department of Horticulture, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, USA
Phytopathology 101:205-12. 2011..In addition, we have noted that high levels of resistance are mostly found in species with high levels of phenotypic plasticity. The three most resistant species were Solanum paucijugum, S. brevicaule, and S. commersonii...
Hybrid origins of cultivated potatoesFlor Rodriguez
USDA, Agricultural Research Service, Department of Horticulture, University of Wisconsin, 1575 Linden Drive, Madison, WI 53706 1590, USA
Theor Appl Genet 121:1187-98. 2010..maglia. Hybrid origins of the crop/weed species S. sucrense are more difficult to support and S. vernei is not supported as a wild species progenitor of the S. tuberosum Andigenum Group...
Do potatoes and tomatoes have a single evolutionary history, and what proportion of the genome supports this history?Flor Rodriguez
USDA, Agricultural Research Service Department of Horticulture, 1575 Linden Drive, University of Wisconsin Madison, Madison, Wisconsin 53706 1590, USA
BMC Evol Biol 9:191. 2009..The present study attempts to provide a fully resolved phylogeny among the main clades in potato and tomato that can help to identify the appropriate markers for future studies using additional species...
A test of taxonomic predictivity: resistance to the Colorado potato beetle in wild relatives of cultivated potatoS H Jansky
USDA ARS, Department of Horticulture, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI 53706, USA
J Econ Entomol 102:422-31. 2009..However, we have identified additional species with resistance to the Colorado potato beetle. Mechanisms of resistance are being studied in these species and attempts will be made to introgress them into the cultivated potato...
Single copy nuclear gene analysis of polyploidy in wild potatoes (Solanum section Petota)Danying Cai
Department of Horticulture, the State Agricultural Ministry Key Laboratory of Horticultural Plant Growth, Development and Quality Improvement, 866 Yuhangtang Road, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, Zhejiang 310058, China

Extensive simple sequence repeat genotyping of potato landraces supports a major reevaluation of their gene pool structure and classificationDavid M Spooner
Vegetable Crops Research Unit, Agricultural Research Service, U S Department of Agriculture, Department of Horticulture, University of Wisconsin, 1575 Linden Drive, Madison, WI 53706 1590, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 104:19398-403. 2007..curtilobum (pentaploid). For other classifications, consistent and stable identifications are impossible, and their classification as species is artificial and only maintains the confusion of users of the gene banks and literature...
Ecogeography of ploidy variation in cultivated potato (Solanum sect. Petota)David M Spooner
USDA, Agricultural Research Service, Department of Horticulture, University of Wisconsin, 1575 Linden Drive, Madison, Wisconsin 53706 1590 USA
Am J Bot 97:2049-60. 2010..A rational, stable, and universally accepted taxonomy of this major crop plant will greatly aid all users of wild and cultivated potatoes from breeders to gene bank managers to ecologists and evolutionary biologists...

U S Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service, Department of Horiculture, University of Wisconsin, Madison, 53706
Phytopathology 98:680-7. 2008..This study calls into question the assumption that taxonomic or geographic data can be used to predict sources of early blight resistance in wild Solanum species...
Allopolyploid speciation of the Mexican tetraploid potato species Solanum stoloniferum and S. hjertingii revealed by genomic in situ hybridizationGalina Pendinen
N I Vavilov Institute of Plant Industry, Bolshaya Morskaya Street, 42 44, St Petersburg, 190000, Russia
Genome 51:714-20. 2008..In addition, fluorescence in situ hybridization data suggest that 45S rDNA regions of the two genomes of S. stoloniferum were changed during coevolution of A and B genomes of this allotetraploid species...
