Abstract

[The oomycetes (fungal-like) occur as primary and secondary agents of infection among wild and farmed salmonids in fresh and sea water. These infections can prove fatal, at least for farmed fish, if preventative measures are not undertaken. Molecular sequencing has improved our understanding of the phylogenetic relationships within this taxonomically diverse group with current evidence indicating these organisms evolved from simple holocarpic marine parasites. This chapter covers the commonly encountered oomycetes infections in salmonids.]
