Zymoseptoria tritici is the causal agent of one of the European Union's most devastating
foliar diseases of wheat: Septoria tritici Blotch (STB). It is also a notable pathogen of wheat …

In recent years, the number of emergent plant pathogens (EPPs) has grown substantially,
threatening agroecosystem stability and native biodiversity. Contributing factors include …

In France, as in many other European countries, Mycosphaerella graminicola (Fuckel) Schr
öter in Cohn (anamorph Septoria tritici), the causal agent of wheat leaf blotch, is controlled …

The fungus Mycosphaerella graminicola emerged as a new pathogen of cultivated wheat
during its domestication∼ 11,000 yr ago. We assembled 12 high-quality full genome …

Aim Cryptic species in the Neofusicoccum parvum–N. ribis species complex have only
recently been described, invalidating previous interpretations on host and geographical …

Competition among pathogen strains for limited host resources can have a profound effect
on pathogen evolution. A better understanding of the principles and consequences of …

Modern agriculture favours the selection and spread of novel plant diseases. Furthermore,
crop genetic resistance against pathogens is often rendered ineffective within a few years of …

Pathogen populations differ in the amount of genetic diversity they contain. Populations
carrying higher genetic diversity are thought to have a greater evolutionary potential than …

While emerging fungi threaten global biodiversity, the paucity of fungal genome assemblies
impedes thoroughly characterizing epidemics and developing effective mitigation strategies …

Although fungicide resistance in crop pathogens is a global threat to food production,
surprisingly little is known about the evolutionary processes associated with the emergence …
