1. Studies towards late blight control in potato
Sammanfattning : Abstract The oomycete Phytophthora infestans, which causes the devastating late blight disease of potato, is notorious for developing resistance to conventional control strategies (fungicide application and resistance breeding by introgression of R gene). To increase our tool box of disease management strategies available to combat P. LÄS MER
2. Boosting potato defence against late blight : a study from field to molecule
Sammanfattning : For more than one century efforts has been made to obtain potato (Solanum tuberosum) cultivars resistant to late blight. However, introduced resistance has repeatedly been overcome by Phytophthora infestans (Mont) de Bary. LÄS MER
3. The late blight pathogen, Phytophthora infestans : interaction with the potato plant and inoculum sources
Sammanfattning : The oomycete, Phytophthora infestans, is one of the most important plant pathogens worldwide. This thesis focuses on the late blight pathogen and its host, potato (Solanum tuberosum), and the interaction between these two organisms. Resistance to P. LÄS MER
4. Population structure and pathogenicity evolution of Phytophthora infestans affects epidemiology and management of late blight disease
Sammanfattning : Sound management of late blight, the disease caused by the notorious oomycete pathogen Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary, is dependent on the pathogen’s population biology. However, for P. LÄS MER
5. How sexual reproduction affects the population biology of Phytophthora infestans
Sammanfattning : Phytophthora infestans is a rapidly evolving and highly adaptable pathogen. It is the cause of late blight, one of the most devastating diseases in potato production. Depending on whether both mating types are present or not, P. infestans can undergo both asexual and sexual reproduction. LÄS MER
