Citruses are one of the major fruit crops globally. Among Mediterranean citrus producers, Sicily (southern Italy) is renowned for its high-quality fresh production. Phytophthora diseases a serious issue production worldwide and nicotianae prevalent causal agent root rot in most growing areas globally particularly region. This study reports occurrence inundata as pathogen declining mature trees eastern association with P. nicotianae. first record on Europe The species was identified basis morphology multi-gene phylogenetic analysis, which included internal transcribed spacer, β-tubulin cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1. Pathogenicity tests saplings showed less aggressive than However, co-inoculation both produced more severe symptoms inoculation single species, indicating an additive effect these two pathogens suggesting that opportunistic secondary like may have crucial role complex diseases.
