Oomycetes and filamentous parasitic fungi are plant pathogens that have undergone convergent evolution. A recent study has shown that these microbial eukaryotes have exchanged metabolic genes, which might explain some of their phenotypic similarities.
卵菌纲和丝状寄生真菌是经历了趋同进化的植物病原体。最近的一项研究表明，这些微生物真核生物已经交换了代谢基因，这可能解释了它们的一些表型相似性。
