Host-driven structuring shapes the landscape of phytoplasma diversity across Indian agroecosystems revealed by multilocus phylogenomics

Mitochondrial genomic variation, evolutionary dynamics, and phylogeny of forest-associated Phytophthora species in the Qinling Mountains of China

Combined mitogenomic and multi-locus phylogenomics clarified the phylogenetic placement of these taxa and provided timescale estimates for their divergence and enriches the mitogenomic resources of Phytophthora from pristine natural ecosystems.

High Genotypic Polymorphism and Extensive Gene Flow Drive the Population Dynamics of Potato Oomycete Pathogen, Phytophthora infestans, Across Southwestern China

The findings indicate that southwestern China harbors a highly diverse and admixed P. infestans population, likely driven by frequent pathogen movement among potato-growing regions.

Global‐Scale Patterns of Host Transitions Suggest Contrasting Levels of Specialization Within Rhizoctonia solani

It is suggested that host association and host‐transition patterns are important features of the generalism‐specialization continuum and contribute to population structure in a globally distributed fungal pathogen.

Integrated Pangenomic and Systems Biology Analyses Reveal the Genomic Basis of Virulence and Adaptation in Bipolaris sorokiniana

The first comprehensive species-wide pangenomic and systems-level analyses of B. sorokiniana are presented, providing vital insights into the evolutionary architecture of pathogenicity, adaptation, and genome diversification and providing a valuable genomic resource for disease surveillance and functional characterizat...

Evaluation of genetic diversity among Kosovo maize landraces by retrotransposon-based IRAP marker

Nuclear genome population genomics of the potato wart pathogen (Synchytrium endobioticum) reveals high-resolution relationships of global strains

A robust single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) discovery strategy is designed and applied to existing and novel sequence data sets that represent the global diversity in potato production systems and indicates that potato wart was introduced into Canada from a European source.
