RESEARCHERS from @JamesHuttonInst  and SASA, have discovered a new variant of potato leafroll virus is rapidly replacing the historic strain that has circulated in Scotland since at least 1989. https://t.co/vg6gexQJNR #potatoindustry

Aphid transmission plays a key role in the spread of Potato leafroll virus (PLRV) in potato crops. At the James Hutton Institute, we study this process under controlled conditions.

[James Hutton Institute @JamesHuttonInst]

Not long to go until @V_and_A Dundee's 'Over the Garden Wall' free event hosted by @dundeeuni.

Starting Friday 31st October, Hutton will be taking part in the Commonwealth Potato, Garden Power and Daffodil Project sections.

🚨 The UK’s hottest summer has exposed a serious risk to #potato crops. Without innovation, #ClimateChange could threaten one of our most important foods.🌡️🥔

Researchers at the National Potato Innovation Centre warn that Britain is unprepared.
