| description |
As a researcher interested in the epidemiology of Phytophthora, I have to hide my joy at
fi nding a new farm or greenhouse in the midst of a serious epidemic. Here the situation is
entirely different and it has been a pleasure and privilege to work with these authors to
overview Phytophthora globally. The book begins with an account of the early history of
Phytophthora research and the tumultuous events setting the genus in motion. In keeping
with its controversial inception, the chapter on taxonomy and phylogeny makes a compel-
ling case that our current notion of Phytophthora as a genus is illusory. This chapter sets
the stage for the importance of molecular tools on these enigmatic pathogens, and the fol-
lowing chapters discuss species identifi cation, population-level investigation, interspecifi c
hybrids and the impact of diverse Phytophthora species on crops, forests, nurseries, green-
houses and natural areas worldwide.
An important theme is that plants are moving around the globe at an unprecedented
rate, and Phytophthora often hitches a ride. It is interesting to see how different countries
and industries are dealing (or not dealing) with this reality. As the tools for identifying
Phytophthora species become increasingly refi ned, many new species are being discovered
and there is no doubt the current 120+ formally described species are just a fraction of
those occupying various niches worldwide.
For me, the involvement of Olaf Ribeiro is signifi cant because his and Dr Donald C.
Erwin’s 1996 book Phytophthora Diseases Worldwide became available just as I was
embarking on my own journey into the world of Phytophthora. Their book was (and is)
incredibly helpful in making this genus accessible, and, as the literature on Phytophthora
continues to grow rapidly, I'm hopeful that this book will provide a useful glimpse of the
genus worldwide.
