The genome of the yellow potato cyst nematode, Globodera rostochiensis, reveals in-sights into the bases of parasitism and virulence
Abstract
The yellow potato cyst nematode Globodera rostochiensis is a devastating plant pathogen of global economic importance, classified into pathotypes of different plant resistance-breaking phenotypes. G. rostochiensis secretes effectors, some of which were acquired by horizontal gene transfer (HGT), from pharyngeal glands into the host to manipulate host processes and promote parasitism. We generated a high-quality genome assembly for G. rostochiensis pathotype Ro1 and identified putative effectors and HGT events, mapped gene expression through the life cycle focusing on key parasitic transitions, and sequenced the genomes of eight populations including three additional pathotypes.
