Genome sequence and analysis of the Irish potato famine pathogen Phytophthora infestans.

Brian J. Haas, +102 more
- 17 Sep 2009 - 
TL;DR: The sequence of the P. infestans genome is reported, which at ∼240 megabases (Mb) is by far the largest and most complex genome sequenced so far in the chromalveolates and probably plays a crucial part in the rapid adaptability of the pathogen to host plants and underpins its evolutionary potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytophthora Genome Sequences Uncover Evolutionary Origins and Mechanisms of Pathogenesis

Brett M. Tyler, +68 more
- 01 Sep 2006 - 
TL;DR: Comparison of the two species' genomes reveals a rapid expansion and diversification of many protein families associated with plant infection such as hydrolases, ABC transporters, protein toxins, proteinase inhibitors, and, in particular, a superfamily of 700 proteins with similarity to known oömycete avirulence genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Signatures of adaptation to obligate biotrophy in the Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis genome

TL;DR: The genome sequence of the oomycete Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis is reported, an obligate biotroph and natural pathogen of Arabidopsis thaliana, which exhibits dramatic reductions in genes encoding RXLR effectors, proteins associated with zoospore formation and motility, and enzymes for assimilation of inorganic nitrogen and sulfur.
Proceedings Article

The breakout method for escaping from local minima

TL;DR: This paper describes an iterative improvement algorithm, called Breakout, that can escape from local minima, and proves that an idealized (but less efficient) version of the algorithm is complete.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome sequence of the necrotrophic plant pathogen Pythium ultimum reveals original pathogenicity mechanisms and effector repertoire

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.
