Fusarium species are among the most important phytopathogenic and toxigenic fungi. To
understand the molecular underpinnings of pathogenicity in the genus Fusarium, we …

The last decade has witnessed a revolution in the genomics of the fungal kingdom. Since the
sequencing of the first fungus in 1996, the number of available fungal genome sequences …

Magnaporthe grisea is the most destructive pathogen of rice worldwide and the principal
model organism for elucidating the molecular basis of fungal disease of plants. Here, we report …

Ustilago maydis is a ubiquitous pathogen of maize and a well-established model organism
for the study of plant–microbe interactions 1 . This basidiomycete fungus does not use …

We sequenced and annotated the genome of the filamentous fungus Fusarium graminearum,
a major pathogen of cultivated cereals. Very few repetitive sequences were detected, and …

Neurospora crassa is a central organism in the history of twentieth-century genetics, biochemistry
and molecular biology. Here, we report a high-quality draft sequence of the N. crassa …

The aspergilli comprise a diverse group of filamentous fungi spanning over 200 million
years of evolution. Here we report the genome sequence of the model organism Aspergillus …

Colletotrichum species are fungal pathogens that devastate crop plants worldwide. Host
infection involves the differentiation of specialized cell types that are associated with penetration…

Fusarium is a genus of filamentous fungi that contains many agronomically important plant
pathogens, mycotoxin producers, and opportunistic human pathogens. Comparative …

Metarhizium spp. are being used as environmentally friendly alternatives to chemical insecticides,
as model systems for studying insect-fungus interactions, and as a resource of genes …
