This paper identifies population-specific transcriptomic shifts in Aspergillus species, showing how transcriptomic reorganization drives secondary metabolic diversification and domestication in A. oryzae.

The paper analyzes genomic data from 250 Aspergillus flavus isolates to show that pathogenicity is strongly linked to population structure, with population D containing most clinical isolates and harboring genes related to zinc ion binding and lipid metabolism.

This study examines BGC diversity in native and introduced populations of Suillus luteus, finding higher diversity in native populations and identifying unique and conserved BGCs.

The paper analyzes biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) across fungal lifestyles to determine their evolutionary and ecological patterns.
