Breeding Evaluation of Potato Hybrids for Late Blight Resistance

Agronomy
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 ...

Potato late blight - fatal threat in organic potato production [PDF]

, 2005
Improved potato late blight management is crucial for the continuity of organic potato production. Two major changes in cultural practises are necessary: more diverse crop rotation with at least 4 years between consecutive potato crops and optimising ...

From wild to tamed: Reimagining novel crops through omics and local plant diversity

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The global food system faces growing pressure from climate change, biodiversity loss, and rising nutritional demands. Agriculture has increased yields but reduced crop diversity, flavor, and nutritional quality, leaving societies vulnerable and dependent on a narrow set of staple species.

Oospores of Phytophthora infestans in soil provide an important new source of primary inoculum in Finland [PDF]

, 2004
There have been numerous indications since the 1990s that oospore-derived primary infections play an increasing role in the epidemiology of potato late blight.

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

, 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 ...

Measure to manage – an integrated pest management metric for horticulture

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
IPM metric for food horticulture applied to growers in four countries. Overall average score = 58/100. Top fruit growers averaged highest (M = 61). Growers from England scored highest overall & indicated strong adoption of core components Policy is an influencing factor, evidenced by adoption rates in England Policy must function at farm level to ...

Fungal disease management in cotton using plant protection products: An Australian perspective

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Cotton disease management requires evidence‐driven use of plant protection products. Progress hinges on integrating chemistry, diagnostics, stewardship and sustainability to build resilient production systems. Abstract Cotton production faces persistent challenges from pathogens that compromise plant establishment, yield, and fibre quality.

Determining frequencies of fungicide resistance in Leptosphaeria maculans that render demethylation inhibitor fungicides ineffective in the field

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
As little as 1–10% of the population is needed to be resistant for demethylation inhibitor fungicides to be rendered ineffective. Following a single round of selection, the frequency increases by more than 15% with limited fitness penalty detected when no selection is present.

Genetically modified (GM) late blight-resistant potato and consumer attitudes before and after a field visit

GM Crops & Food, 2022
Late blight, caused by Phytophthora infestans, is the most devastating disease in potato production. Here, we show full late blight resistance in a location with a genetically diverse pathogen population with the use of GM potato stacked with three ...
