TL;DR: A draft sequence of the rice genome for the most widely cultivated subspecies in China, Oryza sativa L. ssp.indica, by whole-genome shotgun sequencing is produced, with a large proportion of rice genes with no recognizable homologs due to a gradient in the GC content of rice coding sequences.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Top 10 fungal pathogens in molecular plant pathology
Ralph A. Dean,Jan A. L. van Kan,Zacharias A. Pretorius,Kim E. Hammond-Kosack,Antonio Di Pietro,Pietro Spanu,Jason J. Rudd,Martin B. Dickman,Regine Kahmann,Jeff Ellis,Gary D. Foster +10 more
TL;DR: A short resumé of each fungus in the Top 10 list and its importance is presented, with the intent of initiating discussion and debate amongst the plant mycology community, as well as laying down a bench-mark.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The draft sequence of the M. grisea genome is reported, reflecting the clonal nature of this fungus imposed by widespread rice cultivation and analysis of the gene set provides an insight into the adaptations required by a fungus to cause disease.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors partially sequenced over 5100 random T. reesei cDNA clones and found that most of the genes encoding known and putative biomass-degrading enzymes were transcriptionally co-regulated.
