Complex evolutionary origins of specialized metabolite gene cluster diversity among the plant pathogenic fungi of the <i>Fusarium graminearum</i> species complex
2019-05-17
Abstract excerpt
Fungal genomes encode highly organized gene clusters that underlie the production of specialized (or secondary) metabolites. Gene clusters encode key functions to exploit plant hosts or environmental niches. Promiscuous exchange among species and frequent reconfigurations make gene clusters some of the most dynamic elements of fungal genomes. Despite evidence for high diversity in gene cluster content among closel...
