Main conclusion Using late blight resistance genes targeting conservative effectors of
Phytophthora infestans and the constructing gene pyramids may lead to durable, broad …

Key message The potato late blight resistance gene R8 has been cloned. R8 is found in five
late blight resistant varieties deployed in three different continents. R8 recognises Avr8 and …

Late blight, caused by the pathogen Phytophthora infestans, is one of the most devastating
diseases of potato. Here, we describe a new single dominant resistance gene, Rpi2, from …

Late blight, caused by the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora infestans, is the most
devastating disease in potato. For sustainable management of this economically important …

Key message The durable late blight resistance in potato plant Ma R9 is genetically
characterized. A novel R-gene is mapped. The monogenic nature and map positions of R9 …

Knowledge of the evolutionary processes which govern pathogen recognition is critical to
understanding durable disease resistance. We determined how Phytophthora infestans …

A tomato plant or a part thereof is disclosed. The plant expresses a Tm-22 protein having an
amino acid sequence which renders the plant resistant to tomato brown rugose fruit virus …

Potatoes are one of the most genetically diverse cultivated plants. Considering the huge
