Where do oomycetes live? Oomycetes live literally everywhere. They are among the most widespread eukaryotic life forms and thrive on all continents, including Antarctica, and can be found in ecosystems as diverse as tundra, rainforests, oceans and deserts.
Where can oomycetes be found?
Oomycetes are a diverse group of eukaryotic organisms. The 500 or so species include both parasites and saprobes. They are found worldwide in freshwater and marine habitats. Some prefer well-aerated streams, others stagnant waters.
Where do water molds live?
Many water molds live in fresh or brackish water or wet soils. Most species are saprotrophic (i.e., they live on dead or decaying organic matter), although some cause diseases in certain fishes, plants, algae, protozoans, and marine invertebrates.
