Ohalo and Allied Potato partner to develop and commercialize Boosted potato varieties

Ohalo GeneticsBoosted Breeding potatoes

Ohalo partnered with Allied Potato to develop and commercialize Boosted potato varieties using Ohalo's Boosted Breeding platform, which allows offspring to inherit their parents' entire genomes instead of random halves. This enables faster breeding for higher yields, disease resistance and true-seed potato systems.

  • Boosted Breeding allows each parent plant to pass its entire genome to offspring, enabling precision and speed in variety development.
  • Benefits include higher yields, improved disease resistance, and true-seed potential to replace tuber-based planting.
  • Allied Potato CEO noted potato genetics "haven't meaningfully improved in decades," creating an opportunity for Ohalo's technology to make a difference.
