Host adaptation and genome evolution of the broad host range fungal rust pathogen, <i>Austropuccinia psidii</i>

2025-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Rust diseases on plants are caused by fungi in the order Pucciniales. Typically, rust fungi have narrow host specificity however the pandemic biotype of Austropuccinia psidii has an unusually broad host range causing disease on over 480 myrtaceous species globally. We assembled and analysed a fully phased chromosome-level genome for the pandemic A. psidii and addressed key outstanding questions of its infection...
