Genome-wide detection of genes under positive selection in worldwide populations of the barley scald pathogen
2017-11-22
Abstract excerpt
The coevolution between hosts and pathogens generates strong selection pressures to maintain resistance and infectivity, respectively. Genomes of plant pathogens often encode major effect loci for the ability to successfully infect a specific host. Hence, heterogeneity in the host genotypes and abiotic factors leads to locally adapted pathogen populations. However, the genetic basis of local adaptation is poorly u...
