Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Colonise the Nodules of Phosphite‐Treated Agathis australis
Agathis australis (kauri), the only member of the ancient conifer family Araucariaceae in New Zealand, is colonised by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. The survival of A. australis is threatened by an Oomycota, Phytophthora agathidicida, the causal agent of kauri dieback. Phosphite injections into the trunk are the primary treatment for kauri dieback

Evaluation of phytophthora root rot resistance in avocado [PDF]
Avocado trees (Persea americana) affected by Phytophthora root rot caused by Phytophthora cinnamomi produce copious amounts of small, poor quality fruit and without intervention, affected trees eventually die. Current management practices involve an integrated approach to disease management, including planting on well-draining soil with a high total ...

Metabolomic Analysis of Phytophthora parasitica Growth in the Presence of β‐sitosterol Indicates Adaptive Mechanisms Modulated by Sterols [PDF]
ABSTRACT Phytophthora parasitica is a generalist phytopathogenic oomycete that infects a series of crops with great economic interest, including tomato, tobacco, and citrus species. Sterols are essential lipids in eukaryotic organisms, playing a fundamental role in the structure and function of the cell membrane.

Phytophthora root and crown rot on apples in Bulgaria
Phytophthora is a genus of Oomycota responsible for some of the most serious diseases with great economic impact (Judelson and Blanco, 2005). While 54 species were found in the 20th century (Erwin and Ribeiro, 1996) another 51-54 new species have been identified (Brasier, 2008) since the year 2000. They are spread worldwide and have broad range of host
