The level of specialization of <i>Phytophthora infestans</i> to potato and tomato is a biotrophy-related, stable trait
2019-03-08
Abstract excerpt
Despite their ability to infect both plant species, natural populations of Phytophthora infestans , the pathogen causing late blight on potato and tomato, are usually separated into genetically distinct lineages that are mainly restricted to either host. Laboratory cross-inoculation tests revealed a host-related local adaptation between genotypes, with asymmetric fitness performance between generalist lineages, m...
