The role of ICT in collective management of public bads: The case of potato late blight in Ethiopia
What is the role of Information and Communication Technology in the collective management of public bads? We study epidemics of late blight in potato as a collective action challenge in Oromia, Ethiopia.

Development of late blight resistant potatoes by cisgene stacking [PDF]
Phytophthora infestans, causing late blight in potato, remains one of the most devastating pathogens in potato production and late blight resistance is a top priority in potato breeding. The introduction of multiple resistance (R) genes with different spectra from crossable species into potato varieties is required.

Late Blight of Potato and Tomato
Both potato and tomato are susceptible to late blight, an aggressive disease capable of rapidly destroying entire fields. The disease is distributed worldwide and occurs wherever tomatoes or potatoes are grown, and conditions favor disease development.

Epidemiology and Integrated Control of Potato Late Blight in Europe [PDF]
Phytophthora infestans, the causal agent of late blight, is a major threat to potato production in northwestern Europe. Before 1980, the worldwide population of P. infestans outside Mexico appeared to be asexual and to consist of a single clonal lineage of A1 mating type characterized by a single genotype.

Phytophthora infestans Ago1-associated miRNA promotes potato late blight disease.
Phytophthora spp. incite serious plant damages by exploiting a large number of effector proteins and small RNAs (sRNAs). Several reports are describing modulation of host RNA biogenesis and defence gene expression.

Background Late blight is the most serious potato disease world-wide. The most effective and environmentally sound way for controlling late blight is to incorporate natural resistance into potato cultivars.
