Local adaptation drives the diversification of effectors in the fungal wheat pathogen <i>Parastagonospora nodorum</i> in the United States
2019-05-31
Abstract excerpt
Filamentous fungi rapidly evolve in response to environmental selection pressures, exemplified by their genomic plasticity. Parastagonospora nodorum , a fungal pathogen of wheat and causal agent of septoria nodorum blotch, responds to selection pressure exerted by its host, influencing the gain, loss, or functional diversification of putative effector genes. Whole genome resequencing of 197 P. nodorum isolates c...
