2009年的番茄晚疫病大流行使晚疫病成为美国东部大部分地区的家庭用语。许多家庭园丁和许多有机生产商损失了大部分（如果不是全部）番茄作物，主流媒体报道了他们的经历。一些社区支持农业（CSA）不能向其成员提供西红柿。对此，出现了许多问题：它是如何发生的？与以前的晚疫病流行相比，这次事件有什么不寻常之处？2012年的情况如何，可以做些什么？回答这些问题是最容易的，也是最容易理解最近流行的晚疫病的，如果一个人知道一点疾病的历史和致病菌致病疫霉的生物学。
The tomato late blight pandemic of 2009 made late blight into a household term in much of the eastern United States. Many home gardeners and many organic producers lost most if not all of their tomato crop, and their experiences were reported in the mainstream press. Some CSAs (Community Supported Agriculture) could not provide tomatoes to their members. In response, many questions emerged: How did it happen? What was unusual about this event compared to previous late blight epidemics? What is the current situation in 2012 and what can be done? It's easiest to answer these questions, and to understand the recent epidemics of late blight, if one knows a bit of the history of the disease and the biology of the causal agent,Phytophthora infestans.
