Whole genome sequencing reveals the genetic diversity and structure of Leptosphaeria maculans populations from the Western Cape province of South Africa

Abstract Background Leptosphaeria maculans is the causal agent of blackleg, a globally important disease of canola. Investigating the genetic diversity and structure of L. maculans populations can provide insight into its evolutionary potential and genetic variability, which is important to develop...
