Genomic analyses and mating tests among sympatric isolates of Beauveria bassiana provide evidence for a diverse cryptic species complex.

Abstract excerpt

We investigated the extent of recombination among isolates of Beauveria bassiana s.l. to assess whether gene flow occurs among them in nature and infer whether non-outcrossing populations may represent cryptic species. We sequenced and assembled genomes of 14 isolates collected from soil in Queensland, Australia, and each was genotyped at their mating type locus. We reconstructed a phylogeny from sequences of B....
