The University of Potsdam, located in Potsdam, Germany, is engaged in advanced agricultural research with a focus on sustainable crop production and plant sciences.
In the potato sector, the university has contributed significantly through projects like the development of potato-GEM, the first genome-scale metabolic model of potatoes.
Its research emphasizes plant physiology, bioinformatics, and the balance between growth and defense mechanisms to improve potato resilience and productivity. By collaborating with institutions such as the University of Erlangen, the Max Planck Institute, and the National Institute of Biology, Ljubljana, the University of Potsdam supports innovations in potato breeding and cultivation strategies aimed at enhancing yield, stress tolerance, and sustainable farming practices.
