Adaptive evolution of <i>Moniliophthora</i> PR-1 proteins towards its pathogenic lifestyle

2021-03-08

Abstract excerpt

Moniliophthora perniciosa and Moniliophthora roreri are hemibiotrophic fungi that harbor a large number of Pathogenesis-Related 1 genes, many of which are induced in the biotrophic interaction with Theobroma cacao. Here, we provide evidence that the evolution of PR-1 in Moniliophthora was adaptive and potentially related to the emergence of the parasitic lifestyle in this genus. Phylogenetic analysis revealed c...
