Late blight (Phytophthora infestans) occurring on stems - a new problem in potato crops

open access: yesActa Agrobotanica, 2013
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 ...

Effects of Crop Sanitation and Ridomil MZ Applications on Late Blight Severity and Tomato Yields in Cameroon [PDF]

open access: yesTropicultura, 2004
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)

Markers of genes for resistance to late blight, potato virus Y and potato cyst nematode identified in advanced interspecific potato hybrids

open access: yesБиотехнология и селекция растений, 2022
Background. The harmful organisms affecting potato cause great economic damage in all areas where the crop is grown. One of the most economically important pathogens is the potato late blight (agent Phytophthora infestans Mont. (de Bary)).

Occurrence of fungal foliar diseases of tomato in different agro-ecological zones of Kirinyaga County, Kenya

open access: yesFundamental and Applied Agriculture, 2022
Tomato production is characterized by inconsistent quality and yields due to biotic constraints such as fungal foliar diseases. Information on the occurrence of the diseases in different agro-ecological zones of Kenya is scanty.

SolRgene: an online database to explore disease resistance genes in tuber-bearing Solanum species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background The cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is an important food crop, but highly susceptible to many pathogens. The major threat to potato production is the Irish famine pathogen Phytophthora infestans, which causes the devastating late ...

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

open access: yes, 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

The cell biology of late blight disease

open access: yesCurrent 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

Breeding Evaluation of Potato Hybrids for Late Blight Resistance

open access: yesAgronomy
This study presents the results of scientific research analyzing the resistance to late blight in created potato hybrids of various maturity groups and the possibility of identifying early-maturing forms with increased resistance to both leaf and tuber ...

Postinfection Activity of Selected Late Blight Fungicides [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Disease, 2000
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.
