Potatoes have their roots in ancient tomatoes
Knowing potatoes’ origin story could help future-proof the crucial crop against climate threats.
www.sciencenews.org
"The starchy vegetable emerged 9 million years ago in the forming Andes mountains — a result of natural interbreeding between an ancient tomato plant and potato-like species that lacked the engorged stem bits we call tubers. This ancient cross gave rise to tubers, which were inherited across the entire potato lineage, including its 180 wild species and the thousands of cultivated varieties, researchers report July 31 in Cell."
