Societal Costs of Late Blight in Potato and Prospects of Durable Resistance Through Cisgenic Modification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In the European Union almost 6 Mha of potatoes are grown representing a value of close to ¿6,000,000,000. Late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans causes annual losses (costs of control and damage) estimated at more than ¿1,000,000,000.

Phytophthora infestans Ago1‐associated miRNA promotes potato late blight disease [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2021
Summary Phytophthora spp. cause serious damage to plants by exploiting a large number of effector proteins and small RNAs (sRNAs). Several reports have described modulation of host RNA biogenesis and defence gene expression. Here, we analysed Phytophthora infestans Argonaute (Ago) 1 associated small RNAs during potato leaf infection. Small RNAs were

Resistance of potato genotypes to late blight

open access: yesRevista Caatinga, 2023
ABSTRACT Late blight (Phytophthora infestans) is a serious problem in potato crops in southern Brazil due to favorable climatic conditions for the development of the pathogen and the lack of resistant cultivars available in the market. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the reaction of eight cultivars (Asterix, Catucha, BRS Clara, BRS F63 - Camila ...
