We are the 2015 National Yang Ming University iGEM team from Taiwan. iGEM (International Genetically Engineered Machine) is an international synthetic biology competition hosted by the iGEM Foundation where renowned universities around the world participate. All iGEM teams concretize their creative ideas with synthetic biology and realize their concepts using scientific methods. NYMU has taken part in iGEM since 2007 and has been constantly rewarded for outstanding performances.

This year, we shifted our focus to disease problems of potatoes (<i>Solanum tuberosum</i>), one of the world’s major grain crops. We hope to establish a well-rounded defense system via transformed microbes with synthetic biology techniques to reduce the prevalence of the potato late blight disease, a consequence of water mold (Phytophthora infestans) infection. Given the 2012 North Carolina, US and the recent Zhangjiakou, China outbreaks, we fervently hope to first construct the biological defense system in our local main producing origins of potatoes, Taichung City and Yunlin County, Taiwan. We seek to not only secure the supply of our food sources, but also to help farmers ride through the predicament.

<h4>Tips</h4>
 
<p>This wiki will be your team’s first interaction with the rest of the world, so here are a few tips to help you get started: </p>
 
<ul>
 
<li>State your accomplishments! Tell people what you have achieved from the start. </li>
 
<li>Be clear about what you are doing and how you plan to do this.</li>
 
<li>You have a global audience! Consider the different backgrounds that your users come from.</li>
 
<li>Make sure information is easy to find; nothing should be more than 3 clicks away.  </li>
 
<li>Avoid using very small fonts and low contrast colors; information should be easy to read.  </li>
 
<li>Start documenting your project as early as possible; don’t leave anything to the last minute before the Wiki Freeze. For a complete list of deadlines visit the <a href="https://2015.igem.org/Calendar_of_Events">iGEM 2015 calendar</a> </li>

Fight the Blight
Defending the potatoes
    The 2015 NYMU iGEM team presents a potato defense system, an effective system that can be easily implemented by potato farmers all over the world. This system is made up of three parts: protection, detection, and cure.
    Our system consists of potatoes resistant to Phytophthora infestans, an oomycete that causes potato late blight, by creating a competitive inhibitor that can prevent the effector protein secreted by P. infestans from entering the potato cell. In case that the potatoes we genetically modified cannot fend off the P. infestans, we designed a soil based microbial fuel cell (SMFC) with engineered bacteria on the anode of the SMFC that can detect whether the potato tuber is infected or not. If the potato is infected and detected by our SMFC, we will spray defensin, an antimicrobial peptide isolated from maca (Lepidium meyenii). The defensin can weaken and inhibit the growth of P. infestans without doing harm to the environment and human body since it does not contain heavy metals like most fungicides.
