Blackleg (potatoes) atrosepticum", used to better understand disease resistance, have focused more on the soft-rot symptoms that can sometimes be associated with "P. atrosepticum". However, research is successfully identifying the quantity and type of plant resistance molecules that are produced in response to pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), and their effects on the activity and virulence of pathogens such as "P. atrosepticum". The symptoms of Blackleg of Potato were first described in Germany between 1878 and 1900, but the descriptions were incomplete and cannot definitively be linked to the particular disease. The first complete descriptions of Blackleg in potatoes were formed between
