Earlier occurrence and increased explanatory power of climate for the first incidence of potato late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans in Fennoscandia. [PDF]
Late blight (caused by Phytophthora infestans) is a devastating potato disease that has been found to occur earlier in the season over the last decades in Fennoscandia. Up until now the reasons for this change have not been investigated.

Debate on the Exploitation of Natural Plant Diversity to Create Late Blight Resistance in Potato [PDF]
This paper reports on a debate on intriguing propositions relating to the scientific, agronomic, societal and economic impact of the BIOEXPLOIT project, focusing on late blight resistance in potato. It discusses (i) whether identifying pathogen effectors

Postinfection Activity of Selected Late Blight Fungicides [PDF]
Two sets of experiments were done in the greenhouse with ‘Russet Burbank’ potatoes infected with Phytophthora infestans. The first determined the effectiveness of selected late blight fungicides in restricting lesion length and spore production when applied after stem lesions had occurred on potted plants.

Incidence of Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary on potato and tomato in Maine, 2006–2010
Late blight, caused by Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary, is a devastating disease which is found worldwide. In Maine, United States (US), we recorded late blight on potato and tomato during the 2006-2009 cropping seasons. From 2006 to 2008, over 90%
