2. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Q&A  During the Great Irish Famine of the mid– nineteenth century, well over 1 million people died or were displaced because of the devastating effects of Phytophthora infestans, an alga that infects potato crops. What damage is Phytophthora causing in other parts of the world today?
