Effector loss and gain drives pathogen host range at a fitness cost

Marcus Vinícius Merfa, Tracy E. Hawk, Jelmer W. Poelstra, Lillian Ebeling-Koning, Ervan Rodgers, Hannah Toth, Zachary M. Konkel, Jules Butchacas, Nathaniel Heiden, Muhammad Uzair, Temitope F. Oladele, Godwin Edet Oduokpaha, Rebecca D. Curland, Emmanuelle Lauber, Laurie Marsan, , Jonathan M. Jacobs

This study shows that gene loss and gain in Xanthomonas translucens drive host range shifts, with fitness costs for generalist behavior and enhanced virulence for specialist behavior.

Comparative genomics of Minnesotan barley-infecting Xanthomonas translucens shows overall genomic similarity but virulence factor diversity

Nathaniel Heiden, Verónica Román-Reyna, Rebecca D. Curland, Ruth Dill‐Macky, Jonathan M. Jacobs

The paper compares the genomes of Minnesotan Xanthomonas translucens strains and finds overall genomic similarity but diversity in virulence factors.
