Overview

Pim Lindhout is affiliated with Wageningen University & Research in the Netherlands. Their research has a strong focus on agricultural and biological sciences, specifically within the fields of plant science, food science, genetics, and molecular biology. Their scholarly work covers a variety of topics related to plant pathogens and resistance, disease resistance and genetics, and potato plant research.

The principal topics in their research include:

  • Plant Pathogens and Resistance
  • Plant Disease Resistance and Genetics
  • Potato Plant Research
  • Plant Virus Research Studies
  • Genetic Mapping and Diversity in Plants and Animals
  • Chromosomal and Genetic Variations
  • Genetics and Plant Breeding

Lindhout has published several notable papers in peer-reviewed journals. Some of their recent works include:

  • "Neofunctionalisation of the Sli gene leads to self-compatibility and facilitates precision breeding in potato," 2021, Nature Communications
  • "Solyntus, the New Highly Contiguous Reference Genome for Potato (Solanum tuberosum)," 2020, G3 Genes Genomes Genetics
  • "Crucial factors for the feasibility of commercial hybrid breeding in food crops," 2022, Nature Plants
  • "Contribution and Stability of Yield Components of Diploid Hybrid Potato," 2020, Potato Research
  • "Converting Hybrid Potato Breeding Science into Practice," 2023, Plants

Their frequent co-authors include Michiel E. de Vries, Richard G. F. Visser, Ernst-Jan Eggers, C. Bachem, and P.C. Struik.

Lindhout's research has been published predominantly in journals such as Potato Research, Plants, Nature Communications, G3 Genes Genomes Genetics, and Nature Plants. Their contributions span a broad spectrum within plant science focusing on genetic and breeding aspects.
