  • Title: Phytophthora infestans (Late blight) Infection Assay in a Detached Leaf of Potato.
    Author: Karki HS, Halterman DA.
    Journal: Bio Protoc; 2021 Feb 20; 11(4):e3926. PubMed ID: 33732813.
    Abstract:
    Phytophthora infestans is a hemibiotroph oomycete that primarily infects potato and tomato. It infects stems, leaves, and tubers and fruits of potato and tomato. High throughput and reproducible infection assays are prerequisites to find sources of resistance in any crop. In this protocol, we describe a detached leaf assay (DLA) for conducting the virulence assay of P. infestans in potato leaves. A late blight infection assay using a potato detached leaf is a semi-high throughput assay in which hundreds of plants can be screened in a laboratory setting.
