Abstract

Late blight is the most destructive disease of potato. Due to the sexual and asexual reproduction, late blight has the capacity to evolve rapidly, progression that makes breeding for resistance very challenging. The favourable characteristics of vertical and horizontal resistance might be a good source for breeding resistant cultivars. Understanding the infection steps and defence response of plants is important for the next breeding programs. The goal of this review is to discuss some new insights into the interaction between pathogen and host and to point out new ways of transferring durable resistance genes to Phytophthora infestans into potato gene pool.
