dc.description.abstractPotato production represents the main economic activity in the Nariño region of Colombia, especially with smallholder farmers. This poster / project brief illustrates interconnected strands of a potato breeding program involving local and indigenous communities in cropping and selecting new yellow diploid cultivars. Smallholders selected new varieties according their needs. Genetic improvement of diploid potatoes for higher yield, nutrition and resistance to late blight disease is an important option for improving the economic stability and daily diet of this indigenous community.en
