An eclectic group of 17 experts met at The Natural History Museum (London, UK) on 9\u201310 September 2014 to discuss the latest findings on plant interactions with fungi (Eumycota) and oomycetes (Oomycota\u00a0=\u00a0Peronosporomycota), with topics ranging from the fossil record and comparative genomics to symbiosis and phytopathology. The discussions were largely disseminated via social media (Box\u00a0<a class=\"featureLink\" title=\"Link to feature\" href=\"http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/nph.13371\/full#nph13371-fea-0001\" rel=\"references:#nph13371-fea-0001\" shape=\"rect\">1<\/a>). Highly diverse plant\u2013fungal interactions have formed the backbone of land ecosystems and biogeochemical cycles since the Palaeozoic (see Fig.\u00a0<a class=\"figureLink\" title=\"Link to figure\" href=\"http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/nph.13371\/full#nph13371-fig-0001\" rel=\"references:#nph13371-fig-0001\" shape=\"rect\">1<\/a>\u00a0for geological timeframe). As summarized by Christine Strullu-Derrien and Paul Kenrick (The Natural History Museum, London, UK) the first land plants arose\u00a0<em>c<\/em>. 470\u00a0million years (Myr) ago (Kenrick\u00a0<em>et\u00a0al<\/em>.,\u00a0<a class=\"referenceLink\" title=\"Link to bibliographic citation\" href=\"http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/nph.13371\/full#nph13371-bib-0018\" rel=\"references:#nph13371-bib-0018\" shape=\"rect\">2012<\/a>; Edwards\u00a0<em>et\u00a0al<\/em>.,\u00a0<a class=\"referenceLink\" title=\"Link to bibliographic citation\" href=\"http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/nph.13371\/full#nph13371-bib-0012\" rel=\"references:#nph13371-bib-0012\" shape=\"rect\">2014<\/a>), at which time fungi and oomycetes had already colonized terrestrial ecosystems. Following their terrestrialization, these microbes began to abound within plant fossils (Taylor\u00a0<em>et\u00a0al<\/em>.,\u00a0<a class=\"referenceLink\" title=\"Link to bibliographic citation\" href=\"http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/nph.13371\/full#nph13371-bib-0050\" rel=\"references:#nph13371-bib-0050\" shape=\"rect\">2014<\/a>, and references therein). Ultimately, biological interactions sculpted the genomes of plants, fungi and oomycetes (e.g. Schmidt &amp; Panstruga,\u00a0<a class=\"referenceLink\" title=\"Link to bibliographic citation\" href=\"http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/nph.13371\/full#nph13371-bib-0038\" rel=\"references:#nph13371-bib-0038\" shape=\"rect\">2011<\/a>; Kohler\u00a0<em>et\u00a0al<\/em>.,\u00a0<a class=\"referenceLink\" title=\"Link to bibliographic citation\" href=\"http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/nph.13371\/full#nph13371-bib-0020\" rel=\"references:#nph13371-bib-0020\" shape=\"rect\">2015<\/a>).
