Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oomycetes are emerging or re-emerging threats to agriculture, horticulture, forest, and natural ecosystems. There is a need to develop new concepts in the understanding and management of oomycete pathogens in the era of climate change. The aim of this Special Issue is to provide a platform to publish articles with the aim of understanding and management of diseases caused by oomycetes.
