This study investigates microtubule organization and function in Phytophthora coenocytic hyphae, showing their role in nuclear positioning and sustaining tip growth.

This paper presents the genome of Peronospora belbahrii, revealing high heterozygosity, a small secretome, and CT-rich promoters, and suggests additional virulence factors.

The paper reports unsuccessful attempts to implement CRISPR/Cas9 for genome editing in Phytophthora infestans and suggests future directions for improvement.

The paper develops a genome-scale metabolic model for Phytophthora infestans to characterize its metabolism and predict essential enzymes for in vitro growth.
