We report here isolation of the aggressive root pathogen &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora cinnamomi&lt;/em&gt; from roots of diseased oaks or from soil at eleven out of thirteen decline foci examined. It is proposed that the introduction and spread of &lt;em&gt;P. cinnamomi&lt;/em&gt; may be a major factor in the Iberian oak decline, interacting with drought and other site factors, and leading to stress-related attacks by insects and other fungi. By analogy, it may also be involved in the similar oak declines occurring elsewhere on the Mediterranean.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
