Thrilled to see this finally out!! Our new work suggests #Starships helped #Colletotrichum acquire the genes needed to infect lupin. A glimpse into how fungal pathogens emerge through horizontal transfer and genome reshaping. biorxiv.org/content/10.6... #Fungi #Genomics #Pathogenicity #evolution

Our new study reveals diverse #Colletotrichum species causing pre-harvest #apple bitter rot and Glomerella leaf spot in Italy. Findings highlight the need for targeted disease management strategies to protect apple orchards. @plantdisease.bsky.social @salvos-98.bsky.social doi.org/10.1094/PDIS...
