We performed two experiments in order to evaluate variations in tuber-Cd concentration. In experiment I in 2017, 28 potato cultivars were planted in two different fields with different soil-Cd levels (field-1 and field-2). In experiment II, 12 cultivars were planted in one field (field-1) in two consecutive years. Variations in tuber-Cd levels were observed in both fields (Fig. 1A, B). In experiment I in 2017, in field-1, the tuber-Cd concentration in 28 potato cultivars ranged from 0.10 to

Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic element that can accumulate in plants and poses a threat to human health through biomagnification. There are differences in Cd levels among different plants tissues. Hence, an optimal crop that possesses low Cd levels in the edible parts but high levels in the inedible parts is urgently needed to simultaneously lower soil-Cd levels in contaminated fields and to produce Cd-safe crops. In this study, we investigated the Cd levels in tubers and other tissues of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) using different experimental approaches, and identified variations in Cd accumulati...
