A disease called Potato Late Blight, caused by an oomycete named Phytophthora infestans. An oomycete is not a fungus as such, but is a eukaryotic microorganism with both saprophytic and pathogenic lifestyles. Even today, it cannot be controlled with fungicides, but incidence has been greatly reduced through crop rotation, improved varieties, and other cultural controls.
Potatoes, other things may have been, but potatoes. (:

Potatoes, chicken and uh some other things.
The potato crop failures were caused by late blight, which destroyed both the leaves and the edible tubers, of the potato plant. It is thought that wet conditions over more than one growing season enabled the blight, Phytophthora infestans, to thrive with devastating results.About as many as two million Irish people emigrated during the famine. It is thought that about one million people died from starvation or other famine-related diseases, one disease being typhus.

Nutritionally, the potato is high in carbohydrates and a good source of protein, vitamin C, the B vitamins, potassium, phosphorus, and iron. Most of the minerals and protein are concentrated in a thin layer beneath the skin, and the skin itself is a source of food fiber; health authorities therefore recommend cooking and eating it unpeeled.
