Selective sweeps in populations of the broad host range plant pathogenic fungus <i>Sclerotinia sclerotiorum</i>

2018-06-21

Abstract excerpt

The pathogenic fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum infects over 600 species of plant. It is present in numerous environments throughout the world and causes significant damage to many agricultural crops. Fragmentation and lack of gene flow between populations may lead to population sub-structure. Within discrete recombining populations, positive selection may lead to a ‘selective sweep’. This is characterised by an i...
