Adaptation during the transition from <i>Ophiocordyceps</i> entomopathogen to insect associate is accompanied by gene loss and intensified selection

2024-03-08

Abstract excerpt

Fungal and bacterial symbiosis is an important adaptation that has occurred within many insect species, which usually results in the relaxation of selection across the symbiont genome. However, the evolutionary pressures and genomic consequences associated with this transition are not well understood. Pathogenic fungi of the genus Ophiocordyceps have undergone multiple, independent transitions from pathogen to as...
