Precision breeding creates super potato art
 


The skin is light brown, the meat luscious and yellow: from the outside alone, this new potato looks like any other. But on the inside, it is different. Its cells produce pure amylopectin, a starch used in the paper, textile and food industries. The new potatoes — recently harvested and processed for the first time — were developed by Fraunhofer researchers with the aid of a new, especially rapid breeding process.
