Gene gain and loss during evolution of obligate parasitism in the white rust pathogen of Arabidopsis thaliana.

Gene gain and loss during evolution of obligate parasitism in the white rust pathogen of Arabidopsis thaliana.

Biotrophic eukaryotic plant pathogens require a living host for their growth and form an intimate haustorial interface with parasitized cells. Evolution to biotrophy occurred independently in fungal rusts and powdery mildews, and in oomycete white rusts and downy mildews. Biotroph evolution and mole...
