The '''Oomycetes''' ({{IPAc-en|ˌ|oʊ|.|ə|ˈ|m|aɪ|s|iː|t|s}}),<ref>{{cite Collins Dictionary|oomycete|access-date=5 September 2023}}</ref> or '''Oomycota''', form a distinct [[phylogeny|phylogenetic]] lineage of [[fungus]]-like [[eukaryotic]] [[microorganism]]s within the [[Stramenopiles]]. They are [[mycelia|filamentous]] and [[heterotrophic]], and can reproduce both [[Sexual reproduction|sexually]] and [[Asexual reproduction|asexually]]. Sexual reproduction of an [[oospore]] is the result of contact between [[hyphae]] of male [[antheridia]] and female [[oogonia]]; these spores can overwinter and are known as resting spores.<ref name="Agrios-2005">{{Cite book|title=Plant Pathology|last=Agrios|first=George|publisher=Academic Press |edition=5 |isbn=978-0120445653 }}</ref>{{rp|409}} Asexual reproduction involves the formation of [[chlamydospores]] and [[Sporangium|sporangia]], producing [[motile]] [[Zoospore|zoospores]].<ref name="Agrios-2005" /> Oomycetes occupy both [[saprophytic]] and [[pathogenic]] lifestyles, and include some of the most notorious pathogens of plants, causing devastating diseases such as [[late blight of potato]] and [[sudden oak death]]. One oomycete, the [[Mycoparasitism|mycoparasite]] ''[[Pythium oligandrum]]'', is used for [[biocontrol]], attacking plant pathogenic fungi.<ref>{{cite journal|doi=10.1128/AEM.02643-08|pmid=19447961|title=Influence of Pythium oligandrum Biocontrol on Fungal and Oomycete Population Dynamics in the Rhizosphere|journal=Applied and Environmental Microbiology|volume=75|issue=14|pages=4790–800|year=2009|last1=Vallance|first1=J.|last2=Le Floch|first2=G.|last3=Deniel|first3=F.|last4=Barbier|first4=G.|last5=Levesque|first5=C.

Oomycetes were originally grouped with [[fungi]] due to similarities in morphology and lifestyle. However, molecular and phylogenetic studies revealed significant differences between fungi and oomycetes which means the latter are now grouped with the [[stramenopiles]] (which include some types of [[algae]]). The Oomycota have a very sparse fossil record; a possible oomycete has been described from [[Cretaceous]] [[amber]].<ref name="urlIntroduction to the Oomycota">{{cite web |url=http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/chromista/oomycota.html |title=Introduction to the Oomycota |access-date=2014-07-07 |archive-date=2003-10-09 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031009134355/http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/chromista/oomycota.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

* The [[paraphyletic]] ''[[Pythium]]'' group is more prevalent than ''Phytophthora'' and individual species have larger host ranges, although usually causing less damage. ''Pythium'' [[damping off]] is a very common problem in greenhouses, where the organism kills newly emerged seedlings. Mycoparasitic members of this group (e.g. ''[[Pythium oligandrum|P. oligandrum]]'') parasitize other oomycetes and fungi, and have been employed as biocontrol agents. One ''Pythium'' species, ''Pythium insidiosum'', also causes [[Pythiosis]] in mammals.
* The third group are the [[downy mildew]]s, which are easily identifiable by the appearance of white, brownish or olive "mildew" on the leaf undersides (although this group can be confused with the unrelated fungal [[powdery mildew]]s).
* The fourth group are the [[white blister rusts]], [[Albuginales]], which cause white blister disease on a variety of flowering plants. White blister rusts sporulate beneath the [[Epidermis (botany)|epidermis]] of their hosts, causing spore-filled blisters on stems, leaves and the [[inflorescence]]. The Albuginales are currently divided into three genera, ''[[Albugo]]'' parasitic predominantly to [[Brassicales]], ''[[Pustula (protist)|Pustula]]'', parasitic predominantly to [[Asterales]], and ''[[Wilsoniana]]'', predominantly parasitic to [[Caryophyllales]]. Like the [[downy mildews]], the [[white blister rusts]] are obligate [[biotrophic|biotrophs]], which means that they are unable to survive without the presence of a living host.
