Phytophthora de Bary 1876 [1875]
The 20 genera of the obligately biotrophic, angiosperm-foliage specialised Downy Mildews evolved from Phytophthora at least twice via convergent evolution, making the DMs as a group polyphyletic and Phytophthora paraphyletic in cladistic terms. ... Considering the biological and structural cohesion of Phytophthora, its historic and social impacts and its importance in scientific communication and biosecurity protocol, we recommend that the current broad generic concept is retained by the scientific community.
