Pan-genome analyses of 226 finger millet-infecting <i>Magnaporthe oryzae</i> strains from eastern Africa

2025-10-15

Abstract excerpt

Blast disease, caused by the filamentous ascomycete Magnaporthe oryzae , is the main biotic constraint to finger millet production in eastern Africa. M. oryzae is a pathogen on many grass species, but the high host-specificity of blast isolates underscores the need to study pathogen diversity and virulence at the host level. Here, we fill a void on knowledge on finger millet-infecting strains of M. oryzae by se...
