Sudden Oak Death (SOD), caused by &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora ramorum&lt;/em&gt; (Oomycota), is an introduced disease causing large-scale tree mortality. Two additional &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/em&gt; species, &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora&amp;nbsp;nemorosa&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora&amp;nbsp;pseudosyringae&lt;/em&gt;, cause significantly lower oak mortality, yet they also commonly colonize leaves of &lt;em&gt;Umbellularia californica&lt;/em&gt;, the major transmissive host of SOD in California. We combined field surveys and inoculation experiments to understand disease prevalence dynamics and competitive interactions among these pathogen species. Despite the broader geographic distribution of &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;nemorosa&lt;/em&gt; with respect to that of &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;ramorum&lt;/em&gt;, our results suggest that &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;nemorosa&lt;/em&gt; exhibits a narrower ecological amplitude and, in any given region, occupies fewer sites than &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;ramorum&lt;/em&gt;. Our results additionally suggest that, perhaps due to priority effects, &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;nemorosa&lt;/em&gt; can persist at levels comparable to those of &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;ramorum&lt;/em&gt; in ecologically suitable plots when climate favors &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;ramorum&lt;/em&gt; dormancy. However, &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;ramorum&lt;/em&gt; prevalence increases to levels higher than those of the competing species when abundant rainfall triggers its sporulation. Understanding the determinants and outcomes of competition between these species has important implications for understanding the epidemiology and possible control strategies for Sudden Oak Death.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue></record></records></xml>
