Transposons and accessory genes drive adaptation in a clonally evolving fungal pathogen
Abstract Genomes of clonally reproducing fungal pathogens are often compartmentalized into conserved core and lineage-specific accessory regions (ARs), enriched in transposable elements (TEs). ARs and TEs are thought to promote pathogen adaptation, but direct experimental evidence is sparse. Using a...
