Genomic evidence for intraspecific hybridization in a clonal and extremely halotolerant yeast

Abstract Background The black yeast Hortaea werneckii (Dothideomycetes, Ascomycota) is one of the most extremely halotolerant fungi, capable of growth at NaCl concentrations close to saturation. Although dothideomycetous fungi are typically haploid, the reference H. werneckii strain has a diploid ge...
