Population genomics of Fusarium graminearum reveals signatures of divergent evolution within a major cereal pathogen.

The cereal pathogen Fusarium graminearum is the primary cause of Fusarium head blight (FHB) and a significant threat to food safety and crop production. To elucidate population structure and identify genomic targets of selection within major FHB pathogen populations in North America we sequenced the...
