Abstract excerpt
Ribosomal DNA variation was used to study evolutionary relationships among five fungal-like protoctistan Phytophthora species. On the basis of morphological and ecological characteristics, four of these species--P. palmivora, P. megakarya, P. capsici, and P. citrophthora--were once thought to be related. Variation within a species was extensively studied in a fifth, outgroup species--P. cinnamomi--known, on the...
