Potato and Sweetpotato Breeding and Genetics Programs |
| Introduction |
XXXWelcome to the North Carolina State
University Potato and Sweetpotato Breeding and Genetics Website. Both the
Potato and Sweetpotato breeding efforts are best characterized as
applied breeding programs. Our goal is to develop improved
potato and sweetpotato varieties adapted for use in North
Carolina and the Southeastern US. To achieve this goal, we
utilize a combination of classical and modern breeding
techniques. My research interests include: Plant Breeding; Plant
Resistance to Insects and Pathogens; Application of Molecular
Biology and Plant Biochemistry to Plant Breeding; Integrated Pest
Management; and International Agriculture.
XXXBelow is a map of North Carolina showing the locations of NC's main potato and sweetpotato production counties. For more detailed information on either the Potato or Sweetpotato Breeding Programs and their objectives, or the Vernon G. James Research and Extension Center where the Potato Breeding Program is located, visit the links to the left. Also feel free to contact me via email at: Craig_Yencho@ncsu.edu.
