Differential loss of effector genes in three recently expanded pandemic clonal lineages of the rice blast fungus
Abstract Background Understanding the mechanisms and timescales of plant pathogen outbreaks requires a detailed genome-scale analysis of their population history. The fungus Magnaporthe (Syn. Pyricularia) oryzae—the causal agent of blast disease of cereals— is among the most destructive plant pathog...
