The oomycete Phytophthora infestans Mont. (de Bary), which causes potato late blight, and Potato Virus Y (PVY) are economically important potato pathogens. More virulent P. infestans strains have evolved and are able to overcome resistance genes introgressed earlier to cultivated potato from wild So...
