Molecular Taxonomy of Phytopathogenic Fungi: A Case Study in Peronospora

Background: Inappropriate taxon definitions may have severe consequences in many areas. For instance, biologically sensible species delimitation of plant pathogens is crucial for measures such as plant protection or biological control and for comparative studies involving model organisms. However, d...
