The joint meeting of the Potato Section of E U C A R P I A and the Section Breeding and varietal assessment of the E A P R was held in Warsaw (Poland) on July 3-7, 2000. The meeting was organised by the Plant Breeding and Acclimatization Institute ( IHAR) and was focused on "Breeding research for resistance to pathogens and for quality traits". During the six sessions of the meeting 34 oral presentations and 52 posters were presented. The first scientific session was devoted to the topic: "How to breed for resistance to fungal and bacterial diseases?" and was introduced by a keynote lecture by Dr John Bradshaw, from the Scottish Crop Research Institute of Dundee. The four communications and the ten posters presented were centred on resistance to late blight and Erwinia. The subject of the second session was "Is resistance to viruses an important task for European breeding?" that was opened by an invited lecture by Prof. Jari Valkonen of the University of Uppsala. The session consisted of six oral communicatioos and seven posters. The third session dealt with "Tuber quality objectives in breeding and breeding research". The opening lecture was given by Daniel Elliss~che from INRA of Ploudaniel, followed by five oral presentations and by 6 posters, covering different aspects of technological and nutritional quality of potato. The fourth session was dedicated to "Achievements of biotechnology applicable at present in potato breeding". Four oral presentations and seven posters on the utilisation of molecular techniques to assist potato breeding were preceded by a keynote lecture by Dr Christiane Gebhardt, of the Max-Plank Institute for Breeding Research of Cologne. The fifth session was devoted to the topic: "Varietal assessment in Europe". After an introductory lecture by Dr Julia Boris, from COBORU, four oral papers and ten posters were given. The last session was dedicated to "Breeding diploids, resources, methods" and included five communications and ten posters, discussing the use of diploid lines to introgress valuable genes from wild germplasm into cultivated potato. On July 5, the participants to the meeting visited the Mtoch6w Research Center of IHAR and on July 6, about 60 attendants took part in a whole day excursion to the Potato Breeding Station at Zamarte ( IHAR) and to the Research Center of Cultivar Testing (COBORU) at Karzniczka. The satellite meeting of Global Initiative on Late Blight (GILB) linkage groups was held on July 4. About 108 participants from 21 countries have attended the meeting. Organisation of the meeting was sponsored by EUCARPIA, GILB, McCain Poland and 3M Poland. In total 14 scientists from Eastern Europe attended the
