Corn rust population genomics reveals a cryptic virulent group and adaptive effectorome
2025-05-12
Abstract excerpt
Understanding the population structure of pathogens and the genetic determinants driving virulence gains is crucial for managing epidemic plant diseases. Puccinia polysora , a giga-scale fungal pathogen causing southern corn rust, has posed significant threat to global food security recently. Traditionally, P. polysora was considered clonal with minimal genetic variation. However, our population genomic and tran...
