A NEW CASE OF DIPLOIDY WITHIN A HAPLOID GENUS OF ENTOMOPATHOGENIC FUNGI

2021-03-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Fungi in the genus Metarhizium are soil-borne plant-root endophytes and rhizosphere colonisers, but also potent insect pathogens with highly variable host ranges. These ascomycete fungi are predominantly asexually reproducing and ancestrally haploid, but two independent origins of persistent diploidy within the Coleoptera-infecting M. majus species complex are known and has been attributed to...
