EuroBlight Workshop 15-17 May 2017– Aarhus, Denmark
Current situation and future of CIP’s role in regional potato late blight networks
Jorge Andrade-Piedra Greg Forbes
Outline
• CIP’s mandate and structure • Some history: GILB, Euroblight (Arras) and
Bellagio meetings • Current activities: Asia, Africa, South America • Looking forward – Partnerships with private
companies: fungicides, host resistance, LB management

CIPs Strategy and Corporate plan 2014-2023: six programs
Development oriented: impact in the next 5-10 years
Game Changing Solutions
Research oriented: impact in the long term: 20-30 years Resilient
Nutritious Sweetpotato
Agile Potato for Asia
Potato Seed for Africa
Resilient Food Systems
Conserving Diversity for the Future
3 International meetings: Ecuador 1999, Hamburg 2002, China 2008 8 regional meetings: PE, NL, IL, US, BO, KR, CN, MM 480 members from 72 countries
Bellagio 2009, Arras 2010 From GILB to Global EuroBlight
Use of Euroblight model in the developing world • Pathogen monitoring
– Not much for DSS adjustment, but for explaining and anticipating durability of resistance, fungicide use, etc.
• Data management – Protocol standardization – Data bases
• Social capital and collaboration
Priority countries

Initial AsiaBlight project: a coarse-scale map of the current late blight population in Asia
Blue: sent/received Green: not sent
Sampled for AsiaBlight * Sampled and genotyped by other projects Not sampled for AsiaBlight Louise Cooke

KE-1 = 2_A1
Red KE-1 (Potato) Blue US-1 (Potato) Cyan US-1 (Tomato)
Displacement of US-1 by KE-1 in Africa
• Mid 2014: no KE-1 in sw-UG
• End 2014: KE-1 in sw-UG
• 2015-2016: KE-1 in BI, RW, TZ

In summary
CIP’s role in LB R&D: • Pathogen studies • Breeding populations and resistant varieties • Decision support systems for farmers • Support to regional Blight networks So, what is next?
Asia, Africa, Latin Blight
• Alliances with private companies • Contacts at country level, but not at regional
level (except in Asia) • Potential areas of collaboration
– Pathogen studies – Fungicide testing – Dissemination of resistant cultivars – Validation of DSSs and training

The International Potato Center (known by its Spanish acronym CIP) is a research-for-
development organization with a focus on potato, sweetpotato, and Andean roots and tubers. CIP is
dedicated to delivering sustainable science-based solutions to the pressing world issues of hunger,
poverty, gender equity, climate change and the preservation of our Earth’s fragile biodiversity and
natural resources.

CIP is a member of CGIAR
CGIAR is a global agriculture research partnership for a food secure future. Its science is carried
out by the 15 research centers who are members of the CGIAR Consortium in collaboration with
hundreds of partner organizations.
