Emergence and diversification of a highly invasive chestnut pathogen lineage across south-eastern Europe

2020-02-15

Abstract excerpt

Invasive microbial species constitute a major threat to biodiversity, agricultural production and human health. Invasions are often dominated by one or a small number of genotypes, yet the underlying factors driving invasions are poorly understood. The chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica first decimated the American chestnut and a recent outbreak threatens European chestnut trees. To unravel the mecha...
