An old inversion polymorphism involving giant mobile elements in an invasive fungal pathogen

Fanny E. Hartmann, Ricardo C. Rodŕıguez de la Vega, Arthur Demené, Thomas Badet, Jean‐Philippe Vernadet, Quentin Rougemont, Amandine Labat, Alodie Snirc, Lea Stauber, Daniel Croll, Simone Prospero, Cyril Dutech, Tatiana Giraud

The paper identifies a non-recombining genomic region in the invasive fungus Cryphonectria parasitica linked to the mating-type locus, showing balanced haplotype segregation and potential adaptation through mobile elements.
