In 2011, &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;lateralis&lt;/em&gt; was also isolated from young symptomatic nursery plants of &lt;em&gt;C.&amp;nbsp;lawsoniana&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Thuja occidentalis&lt;/em&gt; recently imported into Scotland from mainland Europe. These are the first findings of &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;lateralis&lt;/em&gt; in the UK. At six of the field sites, only collar and root lesions were observed. However, at two sites, large stem and branch lesions unconnected to the collar region were also observed. &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora lateralis&lt;/em&gt; was readily isolated from both aerial and basal lesions. In artificial inoculation experiments, two Scottish isolates of the pathogen caused lesions on &lt;em&gt;C.&amp;nbsp;lawsoniana&lt;/em&gt; shoots and were readily reisolated from the lesions, their pathogenicity being comparable to that of &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;lateralis&lt;/em&gt; isolates originating from outside the UK. Isolates from six field sites and the two nursery interceptions exhibited ITS and &lt;em&gt;cox&lt;/em&gt;II sequences identical to published sequences of French and North American isolates. However, the isolates from two field sites shared an ITS sequence with Taiwanese isolates and differed from North American, French and Taiwanese isolates by a single-base substitution in &lt;em&gt;cox&lt;/em&gt;II, suggesting a separate evolutionary history. It is clear that &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;lateralis&lt;/em&gt; now presents a significant threat to &lt;em&gt;C.&amp;nbsp;lawsoniana&lt;/em&gt; in Britain. The main source of the outbreaks is likely to be imported infested nursery stock.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue></record></records></xml>
