Verdadera Semilla de Papa (VSP)

Solynta, the Dutch company that specializes in the development, production and sales of hybrid true potato seed has announced that it will adjust its branding to 'Solynta – true potato seed'.

After several meetings and visits to each other, a powerful collaboration has emerged. The Hybrid True Potato Seeds from Solynta and the plant raising facilities and skills from Agris are turning out to be a golden combination.

Here is a sneak peek into one of the many test fields Solynta is currently harvesting. They will be assessing the quality of the tubers, tuber size, dry matter composition, taste, robustness and many other important traits per variety.

Solynta's potato variety was the only one to survive the high late blight pressure in the field among three other commercial varieties planted alongside.

In this new position, Joost will be responsible for the downstream part of Solynta, leading product management, commercial and go to market strategies.

The DNA in humans and gorillas is about 95% identical. This percentage is much lower between potato varieties. This might sound like a fun fact to remember for a pub quiz, but for Remco Ursem and Stan Oome, it is a premise that carries a serious challenge.

Hybrid potato innovator Solynta and seed enhancement company Incotec announced at the International Seed Federation (ISF) congress they have entered a collaboration agreement.

Investigadores de Solynta, empresa de mejoramiento de cultivos híbridos de patata junto con Wageningen University & Research, se han encargado de identificar, clonar y caracterizar el gen de autocompatibilidad en patatas.

New discovery will lead to faster and more focused potato breeding

The World Potato Congress (WPC) is extremely pleased to be offering this second webinar in its 2020 series featuring Mr. Hein Kruyt, CEO of Solynta.

Solynta anunció hoy la concesión de la patente estadounidense número 10.524.436 titulada 'Hybrid Potato Breeding'. La patente reivindica los métodos de Solynta para producir híbridos de patata que se propagan a partir de la auténtica semilla.

Scientists from Solynta and Wageningen University & Research (WUR) have published the most complete genome sequence for potatoes to date. A unique aspect is that both sequence and plant material are made available for research.

HZPC is continuously growing. The global market leader in innovative breeding, seed potato trading and concept development, today launches its brand update. A big step forward, without losing sight of what has always been its core.

Hybrid Potato Breeding company Solynta announced today that it has appointed Charles Miller as its Commercial Director.

The potato breeding company Solynta in The Netherlands has successfully produced a hybrid breeding program for potatoes which will allow the rapid selection and turnover of favourable traits, traits which could help feed millions of people worldwide.

Typically, potatoes are multiplied by replanting a small potato tuber from last season, causing it to grow a new potato plant. Recently a new method of multiplication is making headlines: true potato seed (TPS) from hybrid potatoes.

Potato breeder Solynta announced the completion of a €16 million series B financing round by new investors Fortissimo Capital and Innovation Industries as well as existing investors.

The breeders of Solynta have succeeded in making potato plants insusceptible to the dreaded potato disease Phytophthora infestans, using their revolutionary hybrid breeding technique.
