Population-specific transcriptomic shifts underlie secondary metabolic diversification in Aspergillus flavus Link and the domestication of Aspergillus oryzae (Ahlb.)
Abstract The genomic signatures of microbial domestication remain poorly understood within the context of natural population variation. Here, we demonstrate that Aspergillus oryzae, the filamentous fungus used in soy sauce and sake production, shares more recent ancestry with a predominantly northern, largely non-aflat...
