TL;DR: Access to the P. ultimum genome has revealed not only core pathogenic mechanisms within the oomycetes but also lineage-specific genes associated with the alternative virulence and lifestyles found within the pythiaceous lineages compared to the Peronosporaceae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative Genomics Reveals Insight into Virulence Strategies of Plant Pathogenic Oomycetes
Bishwo N. Adhikari,John P. Hamilton,Marcelo M. Zerillo,Ned Tisserat,C. André Lévesque,C. Robin Buell +5 more
TL;DR: Comparative analyses on the genomes of thirteen straminipilous species, including eleven plant pathogenic oomycetes, to explore common features linked to their pathogenic lifestyle demonstrate the value of comparative genome analyses for exploring the evolution of pathogenesis and survival mechanisms in the oomers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbohydrate-active enzymes in pythium and their role in plant cell wall and storage polysaccharide degradation.
Marcelo M. Zerillo,Bishwo N. Adhikari,John P. Hamilton,C. Robin Buell,C. André Lévesque,C. André Lévesque,Ned Tisserat +6 more
TL;DR: Comparative analyses of predicted CAZymes in oomycetes indicated distinct evolutionary histories, and CAZyme gene families among Pythium spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Population Structure of Geosmithia morbida, the Causal Agent of Thousand Cankers Disease of Walnut Trees in the United States
Marcelo M. Zerillo,Jorge Ibarra Caballero,Keith E. Woeste,Andrew D. Graves,Colleen M. Hartel,Jay W. Pscheidt,Jadelys M. Tonos,Kirk Broders,Whitney Cranshaw,Steven J. Seybold,Ned Tisserat +10 more
TL;DR: The large number of haplotypes observed and the genetic complexity of G. morbida indicate that it evolved in association with at least one Juglans spp.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results suggest that the integrative elements such as phages and transposable elements as well as the episomal plasmids are important drivers of the genome evolution of this important group of plant pathogens.
