1 Current situation and future of CIP s role in regional potato late blight networks Jorge Andrade-Piedra Greg Forbes EuroBlight Workshop May 2017 Aarhus, Denmark

2 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

3 Tblisi, Georgia New Delhi, India Shillong, India Bhubaneswar, India Kathmandu, Nepal Beijing, China Ibadan, Nigeria Dhaka, Bangladesh Ha Noi, Viet Nam Cali, Colombia Quito, Ecuador Lima, Peru San Ramón, Perú Kumasi, Ghana Nairobi, Kenya Addis Abba, Ethiopia Kabale, Uganda Los Banos, The Philippines Lambang, Indonesia Wamena, Papua New Guinea Huancayo, Perú La Paz, Bolivia Ruhengeri, Rwanda Lilongwe, Malawi Chimoio, Mozambique Blantyre, Malawi

4 CIPs Strategy and Corporate plan : six programs Development oriented: impact in the next 5-10 years Resilient Nutritious Sweetpotato Agile Potato for Asia Potato Seed for Africa Research oriented: impact in the long term: years Game Changing Solutions Resilient Food Systems Conserving Diversity for the Future

5 3 International meetings: Ecuador 1999, Hamburg 2002, China regional meetings: PE, NL, IL, US, BO, KR, CN, MM 480 members from 72 countries

6 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

12 Decision support system for smallholders Cultivar susceptibility a and timing of field scouting Factors Level 1 (green) Level 2 (yellow) Level 3 (red) Scouting: every 11 days Every 9 days Every 7 days Weather Level 1 (0 days) Level 1 (0 days) Level 1 (0 days) conditions (rainy Value = 0 Value = 0 Value = 0 days since last Level 2 (1 or 2 days) Level 2 (1 or 2 days) Level 2 (1 or 2 days) fungicide Value = 1 Value = 1 Value = 2 application) Level 3 ( 3 days) Level 3 ( 3 days) Level 3 ( 3days) Value = 2 Value = 3 Value = 5 Time (days) since Level 1 (< 11 days) Level 1 (< 8 days) Level 1 (< 6 days) last fungicide Value = 1 Value = 1 Value = 1 application Level 2 (11 to 13 days) Level 2 (9 to 12 days) Level 2 (7 to 9 days) Value = 3 Value = 3 Value = 3 Level 3 ( 13 days) Level 3 ( 12 days) Level 3 ( 10 days) Value = 5 Value = 5 Value = 5

14 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?

15 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

20 World Potato Congress, Cusco, Peru (co-organized by CIP and ALAP) May 2018

21 The International Potato Center (known by its Spanish acronym CIP) is a research-fordevelopment 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. Thank you!
