Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Ophiocordyceps sinensis in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau parasitizes soil-borne larvae of Thitarodes/Hepialus ghost moths, forming valued Chinese cordyceps. To understand the genetic basis of highland evolution and adaptation of this fungus, genetic structure, selection signals, gene flow and demographic history of 209 isolates from 37 locations in China, were investigated, based on genome and SNP data....
