The Gene Flow Direction of Geographically Distinct Phytophthora infestans Populations in China Corresponds With the Route of Seed Potato Exchange

Phytophthora infestans is a widespread destructive plant pathogen that causes economic losses worldwide to potato production. In this study, we sequenced four mitochondrial DNA gene sequences of 101 P. infestans isolates from five potato-growing regions in China to investigate the population structu...
