Phytopythium and Pythium Species (Oomycota) Isolated from Freshwater Environments of Korea [PDF]
Oomycetes are widely distributed in various environments, including desert and polar regions. Depending upon different habits and hosts, they have evolved with both saprophytic and pathogenic nutritional modes.

Draft Genome Sequence of Biocontrol Agent Pythium oligandrum Strain Po37, an Oomycota [PDF]
ABSTRACT The oomycota Pythium oligandrum Po37 is used as a biocontrol agent of plant diseases. Here, we present the first draft of the P. oligandrum Po37 genome sequence, which comprises 725 scaffolds with a total length of 35.9 Mb and 11,695 predicted protein-coding genes.

The Potato Late Blight Pathogen Phytophthora infestans and Other Pathogenic Oomycota [PDF]
Potato late blight, caused by a member of the Oomycota, Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) De Ваrу, is one of the most important and devastating diseases of potato (Solanum tuberosum). The pathogen attacks both foliage and tubers, and spreads rapidly through host tissues, thereby causing a destructive necrosis. P.

ParAquaSeq, a Database of Ecologically Annotated rRNA Sequences Covering Zoosporic Parasites Infecting Aquatic Primary Producers in Natural and Industrial Systems. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Amplicon sequencing tools such as metabarcoding are commonly used for thorough characterisation of microbial diversity in natural samples. They mostly rely on the amplification of conserved universal markers, mainly ribosomal genes, allowing the taxonomic assignment of barcodes.

Diversity of FAAL enzymes and prediction of their substrate specificity using FAALPred. [PDF]
Abstract FAALs (fatty acyl‐AMP ligases) recruit and incorporate fatty acids during the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. Their diversity, distribution, and substrate specificity remain poorly understood, which limits functional predictions from sequence data.

Description of three novel Lagenidium (Oomycota) species causing infection in mammals [PDF]
Recent molecular phylogenetic analysis of Lagenidium strains recovered from subcutaneous lesions in cats, dogs, and a human with lagenidiosis resolved into four clades; one of them was Lagenidium giganteum, but three others were novel.Due to the recent increase in L. giganteum infections from mammals, we studied 21 Lagenidium strains isolated from dogs
