Comparative genomics of beetle-vectored fungal pathogens reveals a reduction in genome size and independent evolution of pathogenicity of two tree pathogens

2016-12-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Geosmithia morbida is an emerging fungal pathogen which serves as a paradigm for examining the evolutionary processes behind pathogenicity because it is one of two known pathogens within a genus of mostly saprophytic, beetle-associated, fungi. This pathogen causes thousand cankers disease in black walnut trees and is vectored into the host via the walnut twig beetle. G. morbida was first detecte...
