| Abstract: | Ninety-five isolates ofPhytophthora infestans collected throughout Poland during 1985–1991 and characterized for multilocus genotypes based on mating type, allozymes and DNA fingerprint, were analyzed for specific virulence to differential potato cultivars carrying ten major resistance genes. The multilocus analysis led to three groupings. The first group contained 22 isolates of a clonal lineage (PO-1) that is postulated to have been present in Europe during most of the twentieth century, but PO-1 isolates were recovered in Poland only during 1985–1988. This group contained, on average, virulence to 5.5 specific resistance genes per isolate. The second group consisted of 30 isolates in a clonal lineage (PO-4) that had not been detected before 1988. PO-4 isolates had virulence to a mean of 6.5 resistance genes per isolate. The third group was composed of 43 isolates representing 38 multilocus genotypes also not detected before 1988. These diverse genotypes had virulence to an average of 6.7 specific resistance genes per isolate. More than half (53%) of the PO-4 isolates shared a single pathotype. The group of 43 isolates was dominated by two pathotypes: the most common one (47% of the isolates) was the same pathotype that dominated PO-4 isolates; the next most common one (21%) differed from the most common one by the absence of virulence to resistance gene R5. The recent immigrant isolates (not detected before 1988) generally had virulence to a greater number of specific resistance genes than did isolates in the previous population detected before 1988 (PO-1)]. Recent immigrant populations were dominated by one or two pathotypes, so their pathotypic diversity values were somewhat less than that of the previous population. |
