JSTOR Daily: An Andean Origin of Phytophthora infestans Inferred from Mitochondrial and Nuclear Gene Genealogies Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary caused the 19th century Irish Potato Famine. We assessed the genealogical history of P. infestans using sequences from portions of two nuclear genes (β-tubulin ...
An Andean Origin of Phytophthora infestans Inferred from Mitochondrial and Nuclear Gene Genealogies THE causal organism of potato blight, Phytophthora infestans (Mont) de Bary, has been subjected to very close investigation since it was first described just over a century ago. It is only in recent ... A new study challenges the common theory that the devastating potato blight pathogen Phytophthora infestans originated in Mexico. Researchers meticulously reconstructed its global migration history ...
infestans phytophthora, technologynetworks: Temporal Dynamics of Pathogenesis Related Metabolites and their Metabolic Pathways Following Inoculation of Potato Leaves with Phytophthora infestans The resistance in potato cultivars against late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans is classified into vertical and horizontal. Several metabolites associated with resistance have been detected: ... Temporal Dynamics of Pathogenesis Related Metabolites and their Metabolic Pathways Following Inoculation of Potato Leaves with Phytophthora infestans Phytophthora infestans changed the course of history. Even today, the Irish population has still not recovered to pre-famine levels. “We have finally discovered the identity of the exact strain that ...
