DESCRIPTION:Potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.) are a fundamental staple for m
 illions of people and serve as feed and foodstock. Tuber formation starts 
 from underground stolons with the Flowering Locus T homolog SP6A playing a
  key role. Global warming poses a significant constraint to potato product
 ion impacting tuber yield and quality. Therefore\, we aim to better unders
 tand the underlying regulatory mechanisms of heat adaptations and to disco
 ver genes associated with stress tolerance and thereby contributing to dev
 elop stress-resilient potato varieties. Towards this goal\, we performed g
 enome-wide association studies (GWAS) and explored a crossing population t
 o identify genomic regions associated with heat stress tolerance. To under
 stand physiological and molecular changes varieties that differ in their h
 eat response were compared and finally transgenic plants with altered expr
 ession of key-players such as SP6A are studied. The results of these diffe
 rent approaches will be presented and discussed.
