A large accessory genome, high recombination rates, and selection of secondary metabolite genes help maintain global distribution and broad host range of the fungal plant pathogen Claviceps purpurea

S. A. Wyka, S. J. Mondo, M. Liu, V. Nalam, K. D. Broders

This study constructs a pangenome of Claviceps purpurea and identifies factors like a large accessory genome, high recombination rates, and positive selection on secondary metabolite genes that contribute to its global distribution and broad host range.

Whole genome comparisons of ergot fungi reveals the divergence and evolution of species within the genus Claviceps are the result of varying mechanisms driving genome evolution and host range expansion

S. A. Wyka, S. J. Mondo, M. Liu, J. Dettman, V. Nalam, K. D. Broders

This study compares 50 Claviceps genomes to show how genome plasticity and transposable elements drive host range expansion and adaptability in fungal pathogens.
