Phytophthora heveae

Leaf Blight of Brazil Nut

Phytophthora (from Greek ?? ? (phyt n), "plant" and ??? ? (phthor ), "destruction"; "the plant-destroyer") is a genus of plant-damaging oomycetes (water molds), whose member species cause economic losses on crops worldwide, as well as environmental damage in natural ecosystems. The cell wall of Phytophthora is made up of cellulose. The genus was first described by Heinrich Anton de Bary in 1875. Approximately 210 species have been described, although 100 C500 undiscovered Phytophthora species are estimated to exist.
