Phytophthora citricola is an oomycete plant pathogen first identified in 1927 when it was isolated from orange trees in Taiwan. Since its original discovery on citrus, it has been found causing disease on a wide variety of other plants, making it a multi-host pathogen of concern beyond its original citrus host. Documentation of this species remains limited, with few published details on its specific symptoms and management.
