Abstract
The author focuses on potato breeding to increase germoplasm diversity. Cultivated potatoes have limited germoplasm diversity. Wild potatoes offer vast genetic variability. New methodologies need to be developed and tested if wild potatoes are to be effectively incorporated into breeding programs. These hybrids need to be made resistant to all of those problems cultivated potatoes are.
