Late blight caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans is the most serious fungal disease in potato cultivation worldwide. Late blight resistance is demanding the attention of potato breeders worldwide following recent migrations of aggressive metalaxyl-resistant isolates of Phytophthora infestans in potato production areas. Resistance to late blight was controlled by a few major genes (R gene) which can be easily overcame by new races of Phytophthora infestans and an unknown number of genes expressing a quantitative type of resistance which may be more durable. In this study, we used AFLP method to identify markers linked to resistance trait.
