A chromosome-level genome resource for studying virulence mechanisms and evolution of the coffee rust pathogen <i>Hemileia vastatrix</i>
2022-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Recurrent epidemics of coffee leaf rust, caused by the fungal pathogen Hemileia vastatrix , have constrained the sustainable production of Arabica coffee for over 150 years. The ability of H. vastatrix to overcome resistance in coffee cultivars and evolve new races is inexplicable for a -pathogen that supposedly only utilizes clonal reproduction. Understanding the evolutionary complexity between H. vastatrix an...
