Peronospora arabidis-hirsutae is an obligate plant pathogen causing downy mildew disease on Arabidopsis and related crucifers. It inhabits infected leaf tissue of host plants in temperate environments where Arabidopsis and related plants grow. This oomycete parasite spreads through asexual sporangia during wet conditions and forms persistent oospores in infected plant debris.
