The role of toxin/antidote genes in the maintenance and evolution of accessory chromosomes in <i>Fusarium</i>

2025-02-07

Abstract excerpt

The genomic diversity of many fungal species is augmented by accessory chromosomes, which are variably present in individual strains. These genomic regions evolve rapidly, accumulating genes important in pathogenicity but also harboring significant amounts of transposable elements (TEs). This duality suggests a trade-off: accessory chromosomes provide infection-related benefits while otherwise being deleterious du...
