Abstract excerpt
Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (GPI) plays a key role in both glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. Isoforms of GPI are common, and therefore, its isozyme pattern is widely used to characterize isolates of Phytophthora infestans. Despite the importance of GPI in P. infestans studies, the gene encoding this enzyme has not yet been characterized. Furthermore, it has been suggested that P. infestans contains multiple...
