The receptor-like kinase SERK3/BAK1 is required for basal resistance against the late blight pathogen phytophthora infestans in Nicotiana benthamiana. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The filamentous oomycete plant pathogen Phytophthora infestans causes late blight, an economically important disease, on members of the nightshade family (Solanaceae), such as the crop plants potato and tomato.

Pectinesterase activity and gene expression correlate with pathogenesis of Phytophthora infestans [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans is the most devastating disease of potato. Phytophthora infestans produces many secondary metabolites and effector proteins, involved in the pathogenesis, which compromise host defense mechanisms ...

A pangenome analysis reveals the center of origin and evolutionary history of Phytophthora infestans and 1c clade species. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
We examined the evolutionary history of Phytophthora infestans and its close relatives in the 1c clade. We used whole genome sequence data from 69 isolates of Phytophthora species in the 1c clade and conducted a range of genomic analyses including ...

An RxLR effector from Phytophthora infestans prevents re-localisation of two plant NAC transcription factors from the endoplasmic reticulum to the nucleus. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2013
The potato late blight pathogen Phytophthora infestans secretes an array of effector proteins thought to act in its hosts by disarming defences and promoting pathogen colonisation.

Sexual reproduction in Phytophthora infestans [PDF]

, 2007
Potato late blight, caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans, is one of the most devastating plant diseases worldwide. It is becoming increasingly difficult to control the disease in Sweden, leading to an ever more intensified use of fungicides in ...

In vitro biocontrol potential of plant extract-based formulation against infection structures of Phytophthora infestans along with lower non-target effects [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
Late blight, caused by Phytophthora infestans, is among the most destructive diseases affecting tomatoes and potatoes. The use of synthetic fungicides is becoming increasingly restricted due to the banning of several active ingredients for environmental ...

Formation, production and viability of oospores of Phytophthora infestans from potato and Solanum demissum in the Toluca Valley, central Mexico [PDF]

, 2001
Aspects of the ecology of oospores of Phytophthora infestans were studied in the highlands of central Mexico. From an investigation of a random sample of strains, it was found that isolates differed in their average capability to form oospores when ...

TOR Inhibitors Synergistically Suppress the Growth and Development of Phytophthora infestans, a Highly Destructive Pathogenic Oomycete

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Phytophthora infestans, one of most famous pathogenic oomycetes, triggered the Great Irish Famine from 1845 to 1852. The target of rapamycin (TOR) is well known as a key gene in eukaryotes that controls cell growth, survival and development.

The Differential Growth Inhibition of Phytophthora spp. Caused by the Rare Sugar Tagatose Is Associated With Species-Specific Metabolic and Transcriptional Changes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Tagatose is a rare sugar with no negative impacts on human health and selective inhibitory effects on plant-associated microorganisms. Tagatose inhibited mycelial growth and negatively affected mitochondrial processes in Phytophthora infestans, but not ...

Internuclear Gene Silencing in Phytophthora infestans [PDF]

Molecular Cell, 1999
Transformation of the diploid oomycete plant pathogen Phytophthora infestans with antisense, sense, and promoter-less constructs of the coding sequence of the elicitin gene inf1 resulted in transcriptional silencing of both the transgenes and the endogenous gene. Since heterokaryons obtained by somatic fusion of an inf1-silenced transgenic strain and a
