Genomic Signatures of a Major Adaptive Event in the Pathogenic Fungus <i>Melampsora larici-populina</i> Open
The recent availability of genome-wide sequencing techniques has allowed systematic screening for molecular signatures of adaptation, including in nonmodel organisms. Host–pathogen interactions constitute good models due to the strong sele…

A point mutation and large deletion at the candidate avirulence locus <i>AvrMlp7</i> in the poplar rust fungus correlate with poplar RMlp7 resistance breakdown Open
The deployment of plant varieties carrying resistance genes ( R ) exerts strong selection pressure on pathogen populations. Rapidly evolving avirulence genes ( Avr ) allow pathogens to escape R ‐mediated plant immunity through a variety of…

Pathogenomic analyses of <i>Puccinia striiformis</i> f. sp. <i>tritici</i> supports a close genetic relationship between South and East Africa Open
Wheat stripe rust, caused by the fungal pathogen Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), occurs in all major wheat‐growing regions worldwide and poses a constant threat to production. In South Africa, Pst first emerged in 1996 in the We…

Increased virulence of Puccinia coronata f. sp.avenae populations through allele frequency changes at multiple putative Avr loci Open
Pathogen populations are expected to evolve virulence traits in response to resistance deployed in agricultural settings. However, few temporal datasets have been available to characterize this process at the population level. Here, we exa…

Evolutionary dynamics of virulence spread: effects of life cycle, genetic determinism and host resistance deployment. Open
Melampsora larici-populina is a partially asexual basidiomycete fungus responsible for poplar rust, with its sexual stage on larch (Larix sp.) and its asexual stage on poplar (Populus sp.). Resistant 7 poplar cultivars were widely planted …

Pathogenomic Analysis of Wheat Yellow Rust Lineages Detects Seasonal Variation and Host Specificity Open
Recent disease outbreaks caused by (re-)emerging plant pathogens have been associated with expansions in pathogen geographic distribution and increased virulence. For example, in the past two decades' wheat yellow (stripe) rust, Puccinia s…

The escalatory Red Queen: Population extinction and replacement following arms race dynamics in poplar rust Open
Host–parasite systems provide convincing examples of Red Queen co‐evolutionary dynamics. Yet, a key process underscored in Van Valen's theory – that arms race dynamics can result in extinction – has never been documented. One reason for th…
