| 1321042 | Research | Geneticist Rich Novy (background) and plant pathologist Dennis Corsini harvest tubers of an experimental potato selection. |
| 1321043 | Research | Plant pathologist Dennis Corsini and geneticist Rich Novy evaluate tubers of the red-skinned variety IdaRose during harvest. IdaRose originated from the Aberdeen breeding program and was named and released in 2000. |
| 1321044 | Harvesting | Preparing to unload harvested potatoes. |
| 1321045 | Research | In a field at the Aberdeen Research and Extension Center in Idaho, geneticist Rich Novy (left) and plant pathologist Dennis Corsini dig up a single plant of the Alturas variety. |
| 1321046 | Research | Ivory Crisp potatoes (foreground) are ideal for chips, and Alturas potatoes (background) make great fries. |
| 1321089 | Display or Sign | To ensure continuing worldwide availability of this valuable food staple, potato plant breeders must unite desirable processing and fresh-market characteristics with late blight resistance. |
| 1322066 | Display or Sign | Yes, Americans do love their spuds! We each eat about 125 pounds of them a year, about half from fresh potatoes and half in processed foods. Research has brought forth a slew of new, improved potato varieties for both uses. Take, for example, Atlantic-it makes potato chips with lower fat content than any other variety, thanks to its low ratio of water-to-solid-tissue. Atlantic is now the Nation's number one chipping potato. Are you one of the millions of Americans who never peels potatoes? Then perhaps you rely on our instant potato flakes. We invented the process in 1954 to help use up surplus potatoes. Our instant flakes were an instant hit and a big improvement over earlier powdered potatoes. Today, abut 400 million pounds of potato flakes are produced each year in the United States. Ever have a bag of potatoes go bad? Then you've probably met Phytophthora infestans, a fungus that can suddenly turn potatoes into a slimy, smelly mess. Over the years, this fungus, which affects potatoes in storage and in the field alike, has been controlled by chemicals. Lately, though, the microorganism has been showing a worrisome resistance. ARS scientists are developing new solutions to combat this old problem. |
