Dissecting the first phased dikaryotic genomes of the wheat rust pathogen <i>Puccinia triticina</i> reveals the mechanisms of somatic exchange in nature
2019-07-17
Abstract excerpt
Although somatic hybridization (SH) has been proposed as a means of accelerating rust pathogen virulence evolution in the absence of sexual recombination, previous studies are limited to the laboratory and none have revealed how this process happens. Using long-read sequencing, we generated dikaryotic phased genomes and annotations for three Australian field-collected isolates of the wheat leaf rust pathogen ( Pu...
