Genome-wide structural variants uncover strain-specific genes and evolutionary genomic determinants of a fungal maize pathogen
Genomic structural variants (SVs) are important sources of genetic diversity and contribute to the adaptation and evolution of plant-pathogenic fungi. Colletotrichum graminicola, the causal agent of maize (Zea mays L.) anthracnose, causes significant yield losses and serves as an important model for genetic studies. To investigate genomic plasticity in this pathogen, long-read genome assemblies…
