The potato murrain on the European continent and the revolutions of 1848 [PDF]
, 2008 The tale of the Irish Famine, 1845¿1849, following the outbreak of potato late blight, has been told repeatedly, but the parallel story of the Continental Famine, 1845¿1847, has not yet been recorded. The Continental Famine was caused by poor harvests of

Debate on the Exploitation of Natural Plant Diversity to Create Late Blight Resistance in Potato [PDF]
, 2009 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

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2017 Foreground and background selections are two important aspects that need to be carefully considered by plant breeders during field selection. In this article, we used 7 disease resistance markers, including four late blight and three potato virus disease

The cell biology of late blight disease
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2016 Late blight, caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans, is a major global disease of potato and tomato. Cell biology is teaching us much about the developmental stages associated with infection, especially the haustorium, which is a site of intimate interaction and molecular exchange between pathogen and host. Recent observations suggest a role for
