Population genomics of <i>Macrophomina</i> spp. reveals cryptic host specialization and evidence for meiotic recombination
2024-09-03
Abstract excerpt
Knowledge of the factors structuring populations of pathogenic fungi is fundamental to disease management efforts and basic biology. High-quality short-read sequence data were obtained for 463 Macrophomina spp. isolates collected from 91 host plant species and soil in 23 countries. Analyses revealed high diversity, admixture, and equal mating type ratios suggesting on-going recombination. Although most tested iso...
