Some of the reasons why Phytophthora disease is so common in ornamental plants may be the widespread international trade, mixed cultivation, and planting with many other species in nurseries, greenhouses, and gardens. The fact that nurseries are generally close to rural areas may cause the spread of Phytophthora spp. from diseased plant species to nature and perhaps cause new infections in forests and other cultivated plants. In addition, differences in mating and other reproduction types of Phytophthora spp., and climate change may lead to the emergence of more aggressive strains.
