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

Cloning, characterization, and evolution of the NBS-LRR-encoding resistance gene analogue family in polyploid cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.).

TL;DR: Sequence analysis revealed that RGA are abundant and highly diverged in the cotton genome and could be categorized into 10 distinct subfam families based on the similarities of their nucleotide sequences, and gene index analysis showed that each of the subfamilies is at a different stage of RGA family evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome physical mapping with large-insert bacterial clones by fingerprint analysis: methodologies, source clone genome coverage, and contig map quality.

TL;DR: Two new capillary electrophoresis-based fingerprinting methods for genome physical mapping are reported and the effects of different fingerprinted methods and source clone genome coverage on quality physical map construction revealed by computer simulations and laboratory experiments are revealed.
