 Order -Saprolegniales
 generally saprophytic
 few species parasitic on higher plants and animals
 Saprolegnia has been known to affect a variety of
freshwater fish

 Order -Leptomitales
 Aquatic, saprotrophic, often found in polluted water;
 eucarpic; hyphae constricted, with cellulin plugs, arising
from a well-defined basal cell;
 oogonium typically containing a single egg, which may
be free or embedded in periplasm (a peripheral layer of
protoplasm);
 example genera
Apodachlyella, Ducellieria, Leptolegniella
 Order -Legenidiales
 an order of chiefly aquatic fungi (subclass Oomycetes) that are mostly
parasitic in algae and water molds
 that have a simple or somewhat branched holocarpic thallus

Halioticida, Paralagenidium etc.,
 Order -Peronosporales
 Most economically important group in oomycetes
