Preface Filamentous eukaryotic pathogens, including fungi and oomycetes, are notorious for causing destructive diseases on plants. Historically, these pathogens have had tremendous impacts on natural and managed ecosystems and continue to threaten agriculture and forestry. They exert significant limitations to food and fiber production and cause damage to natural and man-made landscapes. Deciphering the virulence mechanisms employed by fungal/oomycete pathogens and conditions that influence their ability to cause disease is critically important for our future well-being. Such disc
