Botrytis cinerea loss and restoration of virulence during in vitro culture follows flux in global DNA methylation
2016-06-17
Abstract excerpt
Pathogenic fungi can lose virulence after protracted periods of culture but little is known of the underlying mechanisms. Here we present the first single-base resolution methylome for the plant pathogen B. cinerea and identify differentially methylated genes/genomic regions associated with virulence erosion. Cultures were maintained for eight months with subcultures and virulence testing every month. Methylation-...
