Abstract
While it is increasingly well understood how plants and animals spread around the world, and how they diversify and occupy new niches, such knowledge is fairly limited for fungi and oomycetes. As is true for animals and plants, many plant pathogenic fungi have been spread anthropogenically, but, in contrast to them, only rarely as a deliberate introduction. In addition, the occupation of new niches for plant pathogenic fungi is less defined by the abiotic environment, but more by the biotic environment, as the interaction with the host plant is the major ecological determinant of fitness, especially for biotrophic and hemibiotrophic pathogens. Thus, host switches are a major driver in the diversification of pathogens, which can have an effect similar to the arrival of animals or plants on a previously uninhabited archipelago. This chapter summarises the current state of knowledge on range expansions and host jumps in plant pathogens, focusing on (hemi-)biotrophic fungi and oomycetes.
