Characterization of the Potato Late Blight Pathogen Phytophthora infestans in Tunisia
This mini-review focus on summarizing different phenotypic and genotypic analysis recorded on Phytophthora infestans population collected from the Northern area of Tunisia. Here, we demonstrated that mating type distribution plays a primordial role in genetic structure of the pathogen between sampling regions. Also, a probably strong correlation between mating type and metalaxyl resistance coul...
متن کاملPlant-mediated gene silencing restricts growth of the potato late blight pathogen Phytophthora infestans
Phytophthora infestans is an oomycete that causes severe damage to potato, and is well known for its ability to evolve rapidly in order to overcome resistant potato varieties. An RNA silencing strategy was evaluated here to clarify if small interfering RNA homologous to selected genes in P. infestans could be targeted from the plant host to reduce the magnitude of the infection. As a proof-of-c...
متن کاملLoop-mediated isothermal amplification for detection of the tomato and potato late blight pathogen, Phytophthora infestans.
AIMS To design and validate a colorimetric loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay for rapid detection of Phytophthora infestans DNA. METHODS AND RESULTS Two sets of loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) primers were designed and evaluated for their sensitivity and specificity for P. infestans. ITSII primers targeted a portion of the internal transcribed spacer region of ribosoma...
متن کاملThe Late Blight Pathogen, Phytophthora infestans Interaction with the Potato Plant and Inoculum Sources
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. infestans was evaluated histologically, using leaves of potato cultivars with varying levels of general resistance. Preinfectional events could be ...
متن کاملContrasting Potato Foliage and Tuber Defense Mechanisms against the Late Blight Pathogen Phytophthora infestans
The late blight pathogen Phytophthora infestans can attack both potato foliage and tubers. When inoculated with P. infestans, foliage of nontransformed 'Russet Burbank' (WT) develops late blight disease while that of transgenic 'Russet Burbank' line SP2211 (+RB) does not. We compared the foliar transcriptome responses of these two lines to P. infestans inoculation using an RNA-seq approach. A t...
