Abstract(s)

The oomycetes form a phylogenetically distinct group of eukaryotic microorganisms that includes some of the most notorious pathogens of plants. Among these, members of the genus Phytophthora cause enormous economic losses on crop species as well as environmental damage in natural ecosystems. Phytophthora cinnamomi is the most widely distributed Phytophthora species, with nearly 1000 host species.
