2007 journal article

An Andean origin of Phytophthora infestans inferred from mitochondrial and nuclear gene genealogies

PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 104(9), 3306–3311.

By: L. Gomez-Alpizar n, I. Carbone n  & J. Ristaino* 

Contributors: L. Gómez-Alpizar n, I. Carbone n  & J. Ristaino* 

author keywords: late blight; oomycetes; phylogeography; Solanum tuberosum; stamenopiles
MeSH headings : Base Sequence; DNA, Mitochondrial / genetics; Demography; Evolution, Molecular; Genes, ras / genetics; Genetic Variation; Haplotypes / genetics; Molecular Sequence Data; Phylogeny; Phytophthora / genetics; Sequence Analysis, DNA; Solanum tuberosum / microbiology; South America; Tubulin / genetics
TL;DR: The geographic distribution of mutations on the rooted gene genealogies demonstrate that the oldest mutations in P. infestans originated in South America and are consistent with a South American origin. (via Semantic Scholar)

2005 journal article

Mitochondrial genome sequences and molecular evolution of the Irish potato famine pathogen, Phytophthora infestans

CURRENT GENETICS, 49(1), 39–46.

By: C. Avila-Adame n, L. Gomez-Alpizar n, V. Zismann *, K. Jones *, C. Buell * & J. Ristaino n 

Contributors: C. Avila-Adame n, L. Gómez-Alpizar n, V. Zismann *, K. Jones *, C. Buell * & J. Ristaino n 

author keywords: Phytophthora infestans; late blight; mitochondria; potato
MeSH headings : Evolution, Molecular; Genes, Mitochondrial; Genome; Haplotypes; Open Reading Frames; Phytophthora / genetics; Polymorphism, Genetic; Solanum tuberosum / parasitology
TL;DR: The mitochondrial genomes of haplotypes of the Irish potato famine pathogen, Phytophthora infestans, were sequenced and showed that although the type I and II haplotypes shared a common ancestor, they clearly formed two independent lineages that evolved independently. (via Semantic Scholar)
