Combined population genomics and transcriptomics to decipher the molecular bases of virulence and host adaptation in the poplar leaf rust fungus Melampsora larici-populina
Bacteria-like phytoplasmas alternate between plant and insect hosts, secreting proteins that disrupt host development. In this study, we sequenced the complete genome of "Candidatus Phytoplasma oryzae
The Ralstonia solanacearum species complex includes R. solanacearum, R. syzygii, and the Blood Disease Bacterium (BDB). All colonize plant xylem vessels and cause wilt diseases, but with significant b
