Abstract excerpt
Evolutionary forces affecting crop pathogens, including hybridization and long-distance dispersal (LDD), may have strong implications for food security and sustainable plant disease control at global scales. However, consolidated evidence is often lacking due to the absence of consistent pathogen surveys beyond national capacities. Our study documents world-wide connectivity between populations of Puccinia...
