The great Famine, Its was a period of mass starvation, illness and immigrations was between 1845 and 1852. More commonly known as "The Great Potato Famine". The true name of what happened was call An Gorta Mor, meaning great hunger, or an Dorchshaol, meaning the bad times. During these times there were more then 1 million deaths from illness and starvation, and over a million emigrated from Ireland. The disease was called Potato Blight.

What made millions of Irish risk their lives to come to the US?

The Irish were saving their lives, not risking them. In 1848, there was a potato famine - potatoes were the Irish primary food, and a very good one. The potato plants were dying from a fungus disease. Some think that the English introduced the fungus disease so the Irish would starve to death. Most English hated the Irish. So, the Irish found that they could emigrate to the USA, find good jobs on the new railroads, mines, and so forth. So millions of them did, and some of those families became powerful leaders in industry, here. If nothing else, my great-great-great-great Grandfather, David, came to the US through Canada.

What is the perfect state of Phytophthora infestans?

P. infestans is the fungus that caused the Irish Potato Famine. As for its "perfect state," it's not clear what the question refers to. If "perfect" has the rigorous meaning of "complete," then probably the condition of feeding on a potato (it can affect other crops, as well) and producing spores is as good as it gets -- from the fungus's perspective. From the Irish grower's perspective, the perfect condition would be "extinct."

What advantages to seed plants have over seedless plants?

One of the advantages would be mixing of genes; seedless plant offspring are identical to the parent, and thus all genetically similar offspring are vulnerable to the same factors as the parents ie. genetic deficiencies/bacteria or virus infection. A good example of this is the Irish potato famine.
