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%

Role of the cyclic lipopeptide massetolide A in biological control of Phytophthora infestans and in colonization of tomato plants by Pseudomonas fluorescens [PDF]
Pseudomonas strains have shown promising results in biological control of late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans. However, the mechanism(s) and metabolites involved are in many cases poorly understood.

Late blight (Phytophthora infestans) occurring on stems - a new problem in potato crops
In recent years changes in the occurrence of the first potato late blight (Phytophthora infestans) symptoms have been noted. Observations of potato crops have showed that occurrence of the blight symptoms is sometimes on the stem instead on the leaves ...

Large-scale DNA sequencing of samples of foliage collected in the 19th century from plants infected with late blight has shown that the potato famines of the 1840s were triggered by a single clonal lineage of Phytophthora infestans, called HERB-1, which persisted for at least 50 years.

Effects of Crop Sanitation and Ridomil MZ Applications on Late Blight Severity and Tomato Yields in Cameroon [PDF]
Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) production in Cameroon is usually handicapped by late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans. A field trial was conducted during 1997 in Dschang, Cameroon, to assess the effect of Ridomil MZ (8% metalaxyl + 64% mancozeb)
