Using genomes and evolutionary analyses to screen for host-specificity and positive selection in the plant pathogen <i>Xylella fastidiosa</i>
2022-04-25
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Xylella fastidiosa infects several economically important crops in the Americas, and it also recently emerged in Europe. Here, using a set of Xylella genomes reflective of the genus-wide diversity, we performed a pan-genome analysis based on both core and accessory genes, for two purposes: i) to test associations between genetic divergence and plant host species and ii) to identify positively s...
