Abstract: | Summary Of 250 isolates ofPhytophthora infestans obtained from Northern Ireland potato crops between 1981 and 1993, only six proved to be of the A2 mating type, the remainder being A1. The first A2 isolate was obtained from a tuber in 1987. The frequency of A2 isolates from 1987 onwards was 3%, a lower incidence than has been reported for England and Wales and the Republic of Ireland. There was no association between phenylamide resistance and mating type. |
