Pyrenophora teres f. teres and Pyrenophora teres f. maculata reference genome assemblies.. Pyrenophora teres genome plasticity

Pyrenophora teres f. teres is the cause of barley net form of net blotch, and occurs in two forms, P. teres f. teres (PTT) and P. teres f. maculata (PTM). PTT disease is known as net form of net blotch (NFNB) and is characterised by net-like necrotic lesions along and across leaves. PTM infection results in spot form of net blotch (SFNB), which typically shows discrete ovoid lesions. These reference genome sequences allow investigation of genomic loci that differentiate the two P. teres forms.
