Two ancient nuclear lineages and divergent reproductive strategies drive global success of the wheat stripe rust pathogen

2026-03-20

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the mechanisms for generating and maintaining plant pathogen genetic diversity is essential for predicting disease emergence and safeguarding the food supply. Here, using population-genomic analyses of 507 global isolates of the wheat stripe rust fungus Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, we uncover two nuclear lineages that diverged before modern agriculture and reinforced during wheat domesticatio...
