Description Isolations were made from blighted pigeon-pea (Cajanus cajan) plants
from different locations in India. A species of Phytophthora was consistently
obtained from these locations and was proved to be the causal
organism involved in the disease. Based on the sporangium shape and
size, oogonium and oospore formation, temperature requirements, and
pathogenicity tests, we have classified these isolates as P. drechsleri f. sp.
cajani. The use of formae speciales was considered appropriate because
of the specificity of these isolates to pigeon pea and Atylosia spp., wild
relatives of the pigeon pea.
