    Planetary agriculture stands to benefit immensely from phytopathogen diagnostics, which would enable early detection of pathogens with harmful effects on crops. For example, Phytophthora palmivora is one of the most destructive phytopathogens affecting many economically important tropical crops such as coconut. P. palmivora causes diseases in over 200 host plants, and notably, the bud rot disease in coconut and oil palm, which is often lethal because it is usually detected at advanced stages of infection. Limited availability of large-scale omics datasets for P. palmivora is an important barrier for progress toward phytopathogen diagnostics. We report here the mycelial proteome of P. palmivora using high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis. We identified 8073 proteins in the mycelium. Gene Ontology-based functional classification of detected proteins revealed 4884, 4981, and 3044 proteins, respectively, with roles in biological processes, molecular functions, and cellular components. Proteins such as P-loop, NTPase, and WD40 domains with key roles in signal transduction pathways were identified. KEGG pathway analysis annotated 2467 proteins to various signaling pathways, such as phosphatidylinositol, Ca2+, and mitogen-activated protein kinase, and autophagy and cell cycle. These molecular substrates might possess vital roles in filamentous growth, sporangia formation, degradation of damaged cellular content, and recycling of nutrients in P. palmivora. This large-scale proteomics data and analyses pave the way for new insights on biology, genome annotation, and vegetative growth of the important plant pathogen P. palmivora. They also can help accelerate research on future phytopathogen diagnostics and preventive interventions.
