The fungal pathogen Phytophthora infestans is the causal organism of late blight, one of the most devastating diseases of potato. In the past, various aspects of the potato-P. infestans interaction have been studied extensively. In this paper we briefly review the current knowledge of the molecular events associated with the interaction and in addition we discuss a new approach for analyzing the molecular basis of pathogenicity of P. infestans. © 1992 Koninklijke Nederlandse Planteziektenkundige Vereniging.
